Hi Andy,

Whilst I'm not 100% sold on adding ever increasing complexity to what we
match, this one feels like a common enough thing to be worth providing.

Looking at the usecases I wonder if it would be better to pass in
an unsigned int *ret which is only updated on a match?

That way the common properties approach of not checking the return value
if we have an optional property would apply.

e.g. patch 3 would end up with a block that looks like:

	st->input_mode = ADMV1014_IQ_MODE;
	device_property_match_property_string(&spi->dev, "adi,input-mode",
					      input_mode_names,
					      ARRAY_SIZE(input_mode_names),
					      &st->input_mode);

Only neat and tidy if the thing being optionally read into is an unsigned int
though (otherwise you still need a local variable)

Jonathan
