The size of each hwid in a cpu nodes 'reg' property is defined by the
parents #address-cells property in the normal way. The cpu parsing code
has a bug where it will overrun the end of the property if
address-cells is greater than one. This commit fixes the problem by
adjusting the array size by the number of address cells. It also makes
sure address-cells isn't zero for that would cause an infinite loop.

I discovered this during code inspection. I don't think it is an actual
bug seen in the wild, but the code does look wrong. I'd appreciate
someone take a look and confirm that I've read the code right.
