The byte stream will look like: [00 00 0f ff]. The existing code reads all 4 bytes, and converts them as required, reading the expected value of 0xfff. If you use of_property_read_u16, this will only take the first 2 bytes, and will incorrectly read 0. You can instead use of_property_read_u32, which will function equivalently to the existing code.
