From: David Gibson <david at gibson.dropbear.id.au>
c12b2b0c20eb "libfdt: fdt_address_cells() and fdt_size_cells()" introduced
a bug as it consolidated code between the helpers for getting
#address-cells and #size-cells. Specifically #size-cells is allowed to
be 0, and is frequently found so in practice for /cpus. IEEE1275 only
requires implementations to handle 1..4 for #address-cells, although one
could make a case for #address-cells == #size-cells == 0 being used to
represent a bridge with a single port.
While we're there, it's not totally obvious that the existing implicit
cast of a u32 to int will give the correct results according to strict C,
although it does work in practice. Straighten that up to cast only after
we've made our range checks.
