of/base: Fix PowerPC address parsing hack
We have a historical hack that treats missing ranges properties as the equivalent of an empty one. This is needed for ancient PowerMac "bad" device-trees, and shouldn't be enabled for any other PowerPC platform, otherwise we get some nasty layout of devices in sysfs or even duplication when a set of otherwise identically named devices is created multiple times under a different parent node with no ranges property. This fix is needed for the PowerNV i2c busses to be exposed properly and will fix a number of other embedded cases.
