sparse gives a warning that 'handle' is not a __be32:

../drivers/of/base.c:2261:61: warning: incorrect type in argument 1 (different base types)
../drivers/of/base.c:2261:61:    expected restricted __be32 const [usertype] *p
../drivers/of/base.c:2261:61:    got unsigned int const [usertype] *[assigned] handle

We could just change the type, but the code can be improved by using
of_parse_phandle instead of open coding it with of_get_property and
of_find_node_by_phandle.

The OF graph API leaves too much of the graph walking to clients when
in many cases the driver doesn't care about accessing the port or
endpoint nodes. The drivers typically just want the device connected via
a particular graph connection. of_graph_get_remote_node provides this
functionality.

During stepping down the tree, parent node is gotten first and its refcount is
increased with of_node_get() in __of_get_next_child(). Since it just being used
as tmp node, its refcount must be decreased with of_node_put() after traversing
its child nodes.

Or, its refcount will never be descreased to ZERO, then it will never be freed,
as well as other related memory blocks.

To fix this, decrease refcount of parent with of_node_put() after
__of_find_node_by_path().

It is useful to have helper function just to get the number of cache
levels for a given logical cpu. We can obtain the same by just checking
the level at which the last cache is present. This patch adds support
to find the level of the last cache for a given cpu.

It will be used on ARM64 platform where the device tree provides the
information for the additional non-architected/transparent/external
last level caches that are not integrated with the processors.

<title>OF: Prevent unaligned access in of_alias_scan()</title>

<id>de96ec2a77c6d06a423c2c495bb4a2f4299f3d9e</id>
<content type='text'>
When allocating a struct alias_prop, of_alias_scan() only requested that
it be aligned on a 4 byte boundary. The struct contains pointers which
leads to us attempting 64 bit writes on 64 bit systems, and if the CPU
doesn't support unaligned memory accesses then this causes problems -
for example on some MIPS64r2 CPUs including the "mips64r2-generic" QEMU
emulated CPU it will trigger an address error exception.

Fix this by requesting alignment for the struct alias_prop allocation
matching that which the compiler expects, using the __alignof__ keyword.

When allocating a struct alias_prop, of_alias_scan() only requested that
it be aligned on a 4 byte boundary. The struct contains pointers which
leads to us attempting 64 bit writes on 64 bit systems, and if the CPU
doesn't support unaligned memory accesses then this causes problems -
for example on some MIPS64r2 CPUs including the "mips64r2-generic" QEMU
emulated CPU it will trigger an address error exception.

Fix this by requesting alignment for the struct alias_prop allocation
matching that which the compiler expects, using the __alignof__ keyword.
