That seems fine, though the added dependency seems appropriate
here as well. of_read_number() is rarely used, and for the most part in
powerpc specific code that is guaranteed to have CONFIG_OF enabled,
so it's not that likely to cause many more problems.

That seems noticeably longer for no good reason, I'd go with either
the header file change you suggested or Anders' patch.
