The existing function to add a new property to a tree being built requires
that the entire contents of the new property be passed in. For some
applications it is more convenient to be able to add the property contents
later, perhaps by reading from a file. This avoids double-buffering of the
contents.
Add a new function to support this and adjust the existing fdt_property() to
use it.

This patch allows dtc to accept multiple /dts-v1/ tags (provided they're
all at the beginning of the input), rather than giving a syntax error.
This makes it more convenient to include one .dts file from another without
having to be careful that the /dts-v1/ tag is in exactly one of them.
We a couple of existing testcases to take advantage of this, which
simplifies them slightly.

dtc currently allows the contents of properties to be changed, and the
contents of nodes to be added to. There are situations where removing
properties or nodes may be useful. This change implements the following
syntax to do that:
/ {
/delete-property/ propname;
/delete-node/ nodename;
};
or:
/delete-node/ &noderef;

In device trees in the world, properties consisting of a single 64-bit
integer are not as common as those consisting of a single 32-bit, cell
sized integer, but they're common enough that they're worth including
convenience functions for.
This patch adds helper wrappers of fdt_setprop_inplace(), fdt_setprop() and
fdt_appendprop() for handling 64-bit integer quantities in properties. For
better consistency with the names of these new *_u64() functions we also
add *_u32() functions as alternative names for the existing *_cell()
functions handling 32-bit integers.

Currently, the Linux kernel, libfdt and dtc, when using flattened
device trees encode a node's phandle into a property named
"linux,phandle". The ePAPR specification, however - aiming as it is
to not be a Linux specific spec - requires that phandles be encoded in
a property named simply "phandle".
This patch adds support for this newer approach to dtc and libfdt.
Specifically:
- fdt_get_phandle() will now return the correct phandle if it
is supplied in either of these properties
- fdt_node_offset_by_phandle() will correctly find a node with
the given phandle encoded in either property.
- By default, when auto-generating phandles, dtc will encode
it into both properties for maximum compatibility. A new -H
option allows either only old-style or only new-style
properties to be generated.
- If phandle properties are explicitly supplied in the dts
file, dtc will not auto-generate ones in the alternate format.
- If both properties are supplied, dtc will check that they
have the same value.
- Some existing testcases are updated to use a mix of old and
new-style phandles, partially testing the changes.
- A new phandle_format test further tests the libfdt support,
and the -H option.

There's currently an off-by-one bug in fdt_subnode_offset_namelen()
which causes it to keep searching after it's finished the subnodes of
the given parent, and into the subnodes of siblings of the original
node which come after it in the tree.
This patch fixes the bug. It also extends the subnode_offset testcase
(updating all of the 'test_tree1' example trees in the process) to
catch it.

This patch adds fdt_get_phandle() and fdt_node_offset_by_phandle()
functions to libfdt. fdt_get_phandle() will retreive the phandle
value of a given node, and fdt_node_offset_by_phandle() will locate a
node given a phandle.

dtc: Switch dtc to C-style literals
This patch introduces a new version of dts file, distinguished from
older files by starting with the special token /dts-v1/. dts files in
the new version take C-style literals instead of the old bare hex or
OF-style base notation. In addition, the "range" for of memreserve entries
(/memreserve/ f0000-fffff) is no longer recognized in the new format.

This patch alters the main testcase, and the dts file corresponding to
it so that we at least trivially exercise dtc's bytestring and base

This patch adds functions for dealing with the compatible property.
fdt_node_check_compatible() can be used to determine whether a node is
compatible with a given string and fdt_node_offset_by_compatible()
locates nodes with a given compatible string.
Testcases for these functions are also included.

This patch adds functions to libfdt for accessing the memory
reservation map section of a device tree blob. fdt_num_mem_rsv()
retreives the number of reservation entries in a dtb, and
fdt_get_mem_rsv() retreives a specific reservation entry.
fdt_add_mem_rsv() adds a new entry, and fdt_del_mem_rsv() removes a
specific numbered entry.
Testcases for these new functions are also included.

At present, the fdt_subnode_offset() and fdt_path_offset() functions
in libfdt require the exact name of the nodes in question be passed,
including unit address.
This is contrary to traditional OF-like finddevice() behaviour, which
allows the unit address to be omitted (which is useful when the device
name is unambiguous without the address).
This patch introduces similar behaviour to
fdt_subnode_offset_namelen(), and hence to fdt_subnode_offset() and
fdt_path_offset() which are implemented in terms of the former. The
unit address can be omitted from the given node name. If this is
ambiguous, the first such node in the flattened tree will be selected
(this behaviour is consistent with IEEE1275 which specifies only that
an arbitrary node matching the given information be selected).
This very small change is then followed by many more diffs which
change the test examples and testcases to exercise this behaviour.

This patch adds a handful of simple testcases for dtc. It adds a dts
file which should generate the same sample tree as is used for the
libfdt testcases, and tests invoking dtc on this dts, plus the
standard batch of libfdt cases on the resulting dtb, which effectively
checks that the dtb is correct.
Because the test framework assumes each testcase is an executable with
the right output conventions, we use a little shell script, dtc.sh, as
a wrapper around dtc itself. It simply invokes dtc and returns a PASS
or FAIL depending on whether dtc returned an error.
It's not much, but it's a start.
