I think I mentioned that in v2 [1]; when the commit subject says "rust:
property: Move property_present to separate", the commit shouldn't do anything
beyond this scope.

I can see that you switch from device_property_present() to
fwnode_property_present(), without fixing users, so obviously the former is
unused.

Please make the implementation of the FwNode abstraction and the removal of
device_property_present() separate commits.

Given that the cover letter says "Remove the duplicated property reading methods
on Device.", I assume that's the only Device method you introduce? If so, please
keep this one in the impl block of device/mod.rs.

Please also rebase onto driver-core-next and put this method in the following
impl block.

	impl<Ctx: DeviceContext> Device<Ctx>

I assume this is valid to call from any device context.
