of: add helper function to retrive match data
It's a common operation for device drivers to retrive the data member from of_device_id struct in their probe function. Most driver end up doing: const struct of_device_id *match; match = of_match_device(driver_of_match, &pdev->dev); driver->data = match->data; With the of_device_get_match_data helper function all this can done in one go.
