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.

Defining a variable with the description and then only use it in the
SYSCTL declaration led to an unused variable warning. In the SYSCTL the
passed value is discarded using __DESCR.
This patch enables using NETA driver on Marvell Armada 3700 SoC
by introducing new compatible string, modifying clock source
obtaining and also excluding unnecessary parts.
The driver is added as a build option for arm64 platforms as well.

Now the virtual address of received buffer is taken from a software ring.
Thanks to this, we can use the NETA driver on 64 bits architecture and
avoid 32-bit buf_cookie descriptor field limitation.

This patch contains a new driver for the network unit of Marvell
Armada 38x/XP SoCs, called NETA. This support was thoroughly tested
and optimised in terms of stability and performance. Additional
hardware features, like Buffer Management (BM) or Parser and Classifier
(PnC) will be progressively supported as needed.
