Three fixes to device property API.

Patch 1 is a simple style fix to be folded into previous Andrew's patch to
allow old gcc to build (see commit message for the details).

There is a crash in linux-next
 BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000008
 IP: [<ffffffff8145e8a6>] fwnode_property_present+0x16/0x30

Check for fwnode pointer before dereference (patch 2).

Patch 3 prevents to allocate buffers with 0 length (the result maybe surprising
to someone).

Changelog v3:
- fix typo in Heikki's patch (patch 2)
- update commit message for patch 1 to explain what is the fixup for

Changelog v2:
- added patches 2 and 3

Andy Shevchenko (2):
  device property: add spaces to PROPERTY_ENTRY_STRING macro
  device property: avoid allocations of 0 length

Heikki Krogerus (1):
  device property: the secondary fwnode needs to depend on the primary
