I'll change them to RTEMS naming conventions.

I'll document them. I should document their use right? Like what
ihandle_t, phandle_t represent.

Once we finalize the interface. I'll add it to the doco.
But I don't understand what you mean by data structures.

FreeBSD has an OF_free which call's free with proper flags.
In RTEMS we decided to ignore the flags and I blindly copied the
whole interface. So I don't think a separate function for free is
needed but it will make the API uniform.

I'll add these comments to the type's documentation above.

I also wanted to add a few other functions that are nor part
of the OF interface but would be really beneficial for RTEMS.

Can I add the following functions?
1) rtems_ofw_get_reg
2) rtems_ofw_status_okay
3) rtems_ofw_get_interrupts

Since these functions are not part of OFW should I use FDT
instead of OFW in the function names?
eg: rtems_fdt_get_reg
