    Linus Torvalds authored
    Pull device properties framework updates from Rafael Wysocki:
     "These add helpers for counting items in a property array and extend
      the "software nodes" support to be more convenient for representing
      device properties supplied by drivers and make the intel_cht_int33fe
      driver use that.
    
      Specifics:
    
       - Add helpers to count items in a property array (Andy Shevchenko).
    
       - Extend "software nodes" support to be more convenient for
         representing device properties supplied by drivers (Heikki
         Krogerus).
    
       - Add device_find_child_by_name() helper to the driver core (Heikki
         Krogerus).
    
       - Extend device connection code to also look for references provided
         via fwnode pointers (Heikki Krogerus).
    
       - Start to register proper struct device objects for USB Type-C muxes
         and orientation switches (Heikki Krogerus).
    
       - Update the intel_cht_int33fe driver to describe devices in a more
         general way with the help of "software nodes" (Heikki Krogerus)"
