Current qemu_fdt_getprop exits if the property is not found. It is sometimes needed to read an optional property, in which case we do not wish to exit but simply returns a null value.
This patch converts qemu_fdt_getprop to accept an Error **, and existing users are converted to pass &error_fatal. This preserves the existing behaviour. Then to use the API with your optional semantic a null parameter can be conveyed.
