[PATCH V8 1/3] of: dynamic: Add interfaces for creating device node dynamically

From: Lizhi Hou
Date: Wed Apr 19 2023 - 00:20:45 EST


of_create_node() creates device node dynamically. The parent device node
and full name are required for creating the node. It optionally creates
an OF changeset and attaches the newly created node to the changeset. The
device node pointer and the changeset pointer can be used to add
properties to the device node and apply the node to the base tree.

of_destroy_node() frees the device node created by of_create_node(). If
an OF changeset was also created for this node, it will destroy the
changeset before freeing the device node.

Expand of_changeset APIs to handle specific types of properties.
of_changeset_add_prop_string()
of_changeset_add_prop_string_array()
of_changeset_add_prop_u32_array()
