Looks, ok but a couple of nits:
1) Needs a testcase.
2) I prefer the convention that in for_each_XX style macros, the first
argument should be the "loop counter" (i.e. the property offset in
this case).
3) Please make the offset parameter called 'offset' or
'property_offset', and change the macro name to
'fdt_for_each_property_offset'. I know this is pedantic, but the
naming convention is designed to repeatedly remind the user that
offsets are offsets and so *cannot* be used as persistent handles.
