Sunil V L 159c86f306 ACPI: Add support for nargs_prop in acpi_fwnode_get_reference_args()
Currently, ACPI does not support the use of a nargs_prop (e.g.,
associated with a reference in fwnode_property_get_reference_args().
Instead, ACPI expects the number of arguments (nargs) to be explicitly
passed or known.

This behavior diverges from Open Firmware (OF), which allows the use of
a #*-cells property in the referenced node to determine the number of
arguments. Since fwnode_property_get_reference_args() is a common
interface used across both OF and ACPI firmware paradigms, it is
desirable to have a unified calling convention that works seamlessly for
both.

Add the support for ACPI to parse a nargs_prop from the referenced
fwnode, aligning its behavior with the OF backend. This allows drivers
and subsystems using fwnode_property_get_reference_args() to work in a
firmware-agnostic way without having to hardcode or special-case
argument counts for ACPI.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
