[RFC,1/2] of: base: Allow more args than MAX_PHANDLE_ARGS if required

Commit Message

Joerg Roedel June 25, 2015, 3:52 p.m. UTC

From: Joerg Roedel <[e-mail]>

The main use of MAX_PHANDLE_ARGS is to define the number of
args elements in 'struct of_phandle_args'. This struct is
often declared on the stack and thus it is impractical to
increase MAX_PHANDLE_ARGS again and again.

To handle situations where more than MAX_PHANDLE_ARGS
elements may appear in a device-tree, introduce functions
to allocate/free 'struct of_phandle_args' with more than
MAX_PHANDLE_ARGS elements and provide the new function
of_parse_phandle_with_var_args(), which can handle those
variable-size structs.

This is necessary for the ARM-SMMU driver, where the number
of mmu-masters can be up to 128.
