[Replace/withdraw previous patch submission to ensure that testing
of related patches on similar hardware progresses together.
Request comments about current state.]

This patch fixes a memory parsing bug when using of_prop_next_u32
calls at the start of a structure.  Depending upon the value of
"cur" memory pointer argument to of_prop_next_u32, it will or it
won't advance the value of the returned memory pointer by the
size of one u32.  This patch corrects the code to deal with that
indexing feature when parsing the ibm,drc-info structs for CPUs.
Also, need to advance the pointer at the end of_read_drc_info_cell
for same reason.
