[PATCH 1/4] OF: Add helper for matching against linux,stdout-path

From: Sascha Hauer <s.hauer at pengutronix.de>

devicetrees may have a linux,stdout-path or stdout-path property
in the chosen node describing the console device. This adds a helper
function to match a device against this property and retrieve the options
so a driver can call add_preferred_console for a matching device.
