Rather than incrementing i, I would just use a running pointer "list"
and drop "i" totally. Not big deal tho.

I don't totally understand the above. The 0 phandle terminates the list
or is just an empty slot in it ? In the later case, it might be more
readable to use goto to skip over down to the normal if (cur_index ==
index) break; and let it return via the normal if (!node) return -ENOENT
out of the loop.

Appart from that it's good and I'm fine with putting it in if you respin
despite being a bit late mostly because it's me who is later reviewing
there :-)

Cheers,
Ben.
