Having multiple "ports" nodes in a device node is not something I've
ever seen before. There may be use cases, but how widespread are they ?
I would prefer handling this in driver code instead of creating a helper
function if the use case is rare.

This also makes me quite uncomfortable. Iterating over all ports of a
device node that contains multiple "ports" children seems an ill-defined
use case.

As the counter can never be negative, you can make this an unsigned int.

I think I've proposed something similar a looooong time ago, and was
told that iterating over ports is not something that drivers should do.
The situation may have changed since though.
Sakari, any opinion on this ?
