On boards that use DM, it is sometimes convenient and quicker to get a device
via its device tree path, since the devices used in the board initialization
routines are usually known beforehand.

This patch adds such a convenience function.

I'm not 100% sure if the function naming is perfect here. Usually
these dev_get_xxx function work on a "dev" provided by the caller
and return something else (addr, size). The functions returning a
"device" are called device_get_xxx. And perhaps its also better stick with using "struct udevice **devp" as parameter for
consistency as the other device_ functions do.

Simon, what do you think?

Thanks,
Stefan
