[RFC PATCH 04/12] of: base: introduce of_match_string()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Introduce a new helper function that looks up a given propery and
matches all string elements against a given string. This is useful
if we want to check wether one string element of some property
matches a given string.
