[PATCH v2 3/5] of: unittest: hashed phandles unitest

From: Pantelis Antoniou
Date: Mon May 16 2016 - 12:52:59 EST


Add a benchmarking hashed phandles unittest which report what kind
of speed up we get switching to hashed phandle lookups.

### dt-test ### the hash method is 8.2 times faster than the original

On the beaglebone we perform about 1877 phandle lookups until that
point in the unittest. Each non-hashed lookup takes about 23us when
the cash is hot, while the hash lookup takes about 3us.

For those 1877 lookup we get a speedup in the boot sequence of
1877 * (23 - 3) = 37.5ms, which is not spectacular but there's no
point in wasting cycles and energy.
