Ah, indeed!
instead of:
of_parse_phandle(dev->of_node, "mbox", 0);
I can do a:
of_parse_phandle_with_args(dev->of_node, "mboxes",
"#mbox-cells", 0, &of_args)
where #mbox-cells = 0;
Or ... can I pass NULL for cells_name and make the #mbox-cells property
optional and still keeping its requirement of being at least 1?
Thanks!
