i have confirmed that:

of.h includes fwnode.h indirectly
fwnode.h does not include of.h directly or indirectly

in theory, dependency between both headers should also be like this.

So, it is simple to use below define in of.h
#define MAX_PHANDLE_ARGS NR_FWNODE_REFERENCE_ARGS

phandle is a type of DT firmware node reference. so this solution
seems suitable as well.

struct software_node_ref_args also uses NR_FWNODE_REFERENCE_ARGS directly.

let us wait for more comments.
