[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.20 029/304] of: overlay: do not duplicate properties from overlay for new nodes

From: Sasha Levin
Date: Mon Jan 28 2019 - 10:44:42 EST


From: Frank Rowand <frank.rowand@xxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 8814dc46bd9e347d4de55ec5bf8f16ea54470499 ]

When allocating a new node, add_changeset_node() was duplicating the
properties from the respective node in the overlay instead of
allocating a node with no properties.

When this patch is applied the errors reported by the devictree
unittest from patch "of: overlay: add tests to validate kfrees from
overlay removal" will no longer occur. These error messages are of
the form:

"OF: ERROR: ..."

and the unittest results will change from:

### dt-test ### end of unittest - 203 passed, 7 failed

to

### dt-test ### end of unittest - 210 passed, 0 failed
