Subject: ACPI: device property: Fix node lookup in acpi_graph_get_child_prop_value()

From: Sakari Ailus <sakari.ailus@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit b5212f57da145e53df790a7e211d94daac768bf8 upstream.

acpi_graph_get_child_prop_value() is intended to find a child node with a
certain property value pair. The check

	if (!fwnode_property_read_u32(fwnode, prop_name, &nr))
		continue;

is faulty: fwnode_property_read_u32() returns zero on success, not on
failure, leading to comparing values only if the searched property was not
found.

Moreover, the check is made against the parent device node instead of
the child one as it should be.
