For sake of readability I will at v5 first check of_find_property() and
if it is correct, then I will call of_property_count_u32_elems().

Has of_property_count_elems_of_size() returns -ENOSYS?

Maybe something has changed, but in my linux-vanila (3.19-rc4)
at ./drivers/of/base.c it returns -EINVAL, -ENODATA or number of
elements.

Have I missed something?

I think that here is the confusing part. Please compare this patch with
the following one.

Here we configure ctx struct via DT. If of_property_count_u32_elems()
returns -EINVAL, then we consider that "cooling-levels" wasn't defined
in DT and return with 0. Other error codes are considered as errors
and probe return error code.
