OF: Utility helper functions for dynamic nodes
Introduce helper functions for working with the live DT tree,
all of them related to dynamically adding/removing nodes and
properties.
__of_prop_dup() copies a property dynamically
__of_node_alloc() creates an empty node
Bug fix about prop->len == 0 by Ionut Nicu <ioan.nicu.ext@nsn.com>
Signed-off-by: Pantelis Antoniou <pantelis.antoniou@konsulko.com>
[glikely: Added unittest for of_copy_property and dropped fine-grained allocations]
[glikely: removed name, type and phandle arguments from __of_node_alloc]
