Instead of the callsites choosing between of_cpu_device_node_get if the CPUs are registered as of_node is populated by then and of_get_cpu_node when the CPUs are not yet registered as CPU of_nodes are not yet stashed thereby needing to parse the device tree, we can call of_get_cpu_node in case the CPUs are not yet registered. This will allow to use of_cpu_device_node_get anywhere hiding the details from the caller.

I keep seeing different drivers calling of_get_cpu_node or of_cpu_device_node_get based on what they are aware of or copying from other place without knowing the details. I am trying to avoid that and ask to use of_cpu_device_node_get at all places instead.
