[PATCH 01/32] of: Fix property supplier parsing

The DesignWare GPIO driver gpio-dwapb ("snps,dw-apb-gpio" or
"apm,xgene-gpio-v2" compatible string) defines the property
"snps,nr-gpios" for the user to specify the number of GPIOs available
on a port. The "-gpios" suffix of this property name ends up being
interpreted as a cell reference when properties are parsed in
of_link_to_suppliers(), leading to error messages such as:

OF: /soc/bus at 50200000/gpio-controller at 50200000/gpio-port at 0: could not
find phandle

Fix this by manually defining a parse_gpios() function which ignores
this property, skipping the search for the supplier and thus avoiding
the device tree parsing error.
