of: functions to count number of elements and convert regulators

A patchset in state Mainline for linux-kernel

From: Heiko Stuebner <heiko@...> Date: Tue, 11 Feb 2014 12:06:57 +0100

In a different thread [0] Mark Rutland suggested that drivers should not repeatedly open-code the counting of array elements in a property as well as handling the format and endianes of the DTB, as these should be limited to the of_ helper functions. Therefore the first patch introduces a set of helper functions for counting the number of u8,...,u64 elements in a property. The second and third patch convert the two regulator drivers that use this pattern to instead use both of_property_count_u32_elemens as well as of_property_read_u32_index. gpio-regulator change tested on a s3c2416-based device, ti-abb-regulator compile-tested only.
