Add a function to lookup a property which is a phandle in a node, and another to read a fixed-length integer array from an fdt property. Also add a function to read boolean properties.

Looking at the U-Boot custodians web page, you need to send the core DT changes (well, probably anything DT related) to Jerry Van Baren.
Yeah, I saw the patch go by. I did not recognize the file it patched and looked at the history:

fdt: add decode helper library
This library provides useful functions to drivers which want to use the fdt to control their operation. Functions are provided to: : :
and the copyright is "Copyright (c) 2011 The Chromium OS Authors."
FDT helper functions have been accumulating in common/fdt_support.c rather than a separate file. Simon, what is the history of lib/fdtdec.c? Is it a shared file from the linux kernel? If it is u-boot specific, it would probably be better to add the functions to fdt_support.c.
In the same vein, I also have not looked at the functions provided by fdtdec.c to see if there is any overlap with existing fdt_support.c functions (a quick look says not).
Best regards, gvb
