[PATCH 1/5] ARM: OMAP2+: gpmc: Fix kernel BUG for DT boot mode

From: hvaibhav at ti.com <hvaibhav at ti.com>

With recent changes in omap gpmc driver code, in case of DT
boot mode, where bootloader does not configure gpmc cs space
will result into kernel BUG() inside gpmc_mem_init() function,
as gpmc cs0 gpmc_config7[0].csvalid bit is set to '1' and
gpmc_config7[0].baseaddress is set to '0' on reset.

This use-case is applicable for any board/EVM which doesn't have
any peripheral connected to gpmc cs0, for example BeagleXM and
BeagleBone, so DT boot mode fails.

This patch adds of_have_populated_dt() check before creating
device, so that for DT boot mode, gpmc probe will not be called
which is expected behavior, as gpmc is not supported yet from DT.
