I'd prefer to add the (invalid) property trying to be set in this
warning messages. So someone is able to find the invalid dt setting
faster. Something like;

	dev_warn(dev, "requested NRD port %u doesn't exist\n", port);

... same as above. For example:

	dev_warn(dev, "requested PDS port %u doesn't exist\n", port);

Apart from that this patch looks fine for me. Thanks for the spot of the
hardcoded max ports check.
