It is fairly common to want to read an integer array property that is composed of an unknown number of fixed size integer groups. For example, say each group consists of three values which correspond to the settings for one input on the device and the driver supports several chips with different numbers of inputs.
Add a new helper function to provide this functionality, it differs for the existing helpers in that it allows reading a smaller number of values than the full array size and checks that the number of values read is a multiple of the group size.
