OF: base: match each node compatible against all given matches first
Currently, of_match_node compares each given match against all node's compatible strings with of_device_is_compatible. To achieve multiple compatible strings per node with ordering from specific to generic, this requires given matches to be ordered from specific to generic. For most of the drivers this is not true and also an alphabetical ordering is more sane there. Therefore, this patch modifies of_match_node to match each of the node's compatible strings against all given matches first, before checking the next compatible string. This implies that node's compatibles are ordered from specific to generic while given matches can be in any order.
