Grant,

I was able to do some sniff testing by adding/removing memory, cpus, and pci
devices and it appears that all device tree nodes and properties were updated
properly.

I would still like to try doing live partition migration where we can update
many pieces of the device tree. I'll be out next week, will try to get
on that when I return.
