r350229 changed the code to lookup the ti,hwmods property in the parent
as it's now like that in the DTS from >= Linux 5.0, allow the property
to be also in the node itself so we can boot with an older DTB.

OF_getprop_alloc takes element size argument and returns number of
elements in the property. There are valid use cases for such behavior
but mostly API consumers pass 1 as element size to get string
properties. What API users would expect from OF_getprop_alloc is to be
a combination of malloc + OF_getprop with the same semantic of return
value. This patch modifies API signature to match these expectations.
For the valid use cases with element size != 1 and to reduce
modification scope new OF_getprop_alloc_multi function has been
introduced that behaves the same way OF_getprop_alloc behaved prior to
this patch.

- Introduce new OF API function OF_prop_free to free memory allocated by
OF_getprop_alloc and OF_getencprop_alloc. Current code just calls free(9)
with M_OFWPROP memory class which assumes knowledge about OF_*prop_alloc
functions' internals and leads to unneccessary code coupling
- Convert some of the free(..., M_OFWPROP) instances to OF_prop_free
Files affected by this commit are the ones I was able to test on real
hardware. The rest of free(..., M_OFWPROP) instances will be handled with
idividual maintainers

This driver works in PIO mode for now, interrupts are available only when
FIFO is enabled. The FIFO cannot be used with arbitrary sizes which defeat
its general use.
At some point we can add DMA transfers where the FIFO can be more useful.
Tested on uBMC (microBMC) and BBB.

given the hardware name.
The ti,hwmods property is used (among other things) to associate an fdt node
with a specific instance of some hardware. For example given a device node
that contains the property ti,hwmods = "timer3", if you call this passing
"timer" as the hwmod string to look for it would return 3.
files to vendor-provided ones. It should make easier to adopt platform
code to new revisions of hardware and to use DTS overlays for various
Beaglebone extensions (shields/capes).
Original dts filenames were not changed, they're now wrappers over dts
files provided by TI. So make sure you update .dtb files on your
devices as part of kernel update
GPIO addressing was changed: instead of one global /dev/gpioc0 there
are per-bank instances of /dev/gpiocX. Each bank has 32 pins so for
instance pin 121 on /dev/gpioc0 in old addressing scheme is now pin 25
on /dev/gpioc3
On Pandaboard serial console devices was changed from /dev/ttyu0 to
/dev/ttyu2 so you'll have to update /etc/ttys to get login prompt
on serial port in multiuser mode. Single user mode serial console
should work as-is
