[PATCH 00/19] DT header disentangling, part 1

This is the first of a series of clean-ups to disentangle the DT 
includes. There's a decade plus old comment in of_device.h:

 #include <linux/of_platform.h> /* temporary until merge */

Who's this Grant person that wrote this? ;)

It gets better. of_device.h also pulls in of.h, and of_platform.h 
includes of_device.h. So naturally, drivers include all combinations of 
those 3 headers and sometimes they actually need them. 

I started on fixing this years ago, but just dropping the circular 
includes and fixing all the fallout was massive and didn't sit well. 
Pulling in of_device.h in all the drivers that happen to call only
of_device_get_match_data/of_match_device didn't seem great when the rest 
of of_device.h would never be needed. of_device.h being everything that 
works on a struct device is not a great split because several types of 
users deal with struct device. The better split seems to be by user 
(subsys driver vs. consumer) which several subsystems now do. For 
of_device.h, the users can primarily be split between bus 
implementations and device drivers. Device drivers also typically need 
of.h to read properties. So let's move of_device.h towards just bus 
related functions and move device driver related functions to of.h.

This series is just the first step. It makes a couple of clean-ups to 
replace some includes with forward declarations. It moves 
of_device_get_match_data() and of_cpu_device_node_get() to of.h. The 
former move is transparent for now and preparation for the next series.
The last part of the series updates drivers using 
of_cpu_device_node_get() and/or relying on the implicit cpu.h include 
which is removed in the last patch.
