|     of: base: add of_parse_phandle_with_optional_args()
|
|     Add a new variant of the of_parse_phandle_with_args() which treats the
|     cells name as optional. If it's missing, it is assumed that the phandle
|     has no arguments.
|
|     Up until now, a nvmem node didn't have any arguments, so all the device
|     trees haven't any '#*-cells' property. But there is a need for an
|     additional argument for the phandle, for which we need a '#*-cells'
|     property. Therefore, we need to support nvmem nodes with and without
|     this property.
