The old code and new code aren't equivalent:

The binding doesn't specify the use of /bits/ 16 <...>, nor does the
only in-tree dts use it:

arch/mips/boot/dts/easy50712.dts:               lantiq,shadow = <0xfff>;

So in the DTB, lantiq-shadow will be stored as a be32 value. 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.

Thanks,
Mark.
