[RFC PATCH 68/77] libfdt: Introduce fdt_getprop_by_offset_w()
From: Herve Codina
Date: Mon Jan 12 2026 - 09:22:06 EST
The future support for applying a addon on a base device-tree needs to
modify properties retrieved by their offset.
fdt_getprop_by_offset() already exists to get a preperty by its offset
but the property returned is read-only. A writable returned property is
needed.
Fill the lack and introduce fdt_getprop_by_offset_w(), the write enabled
variant of fdt_getprop_by_offset().
