The OF_RECONFIG notifier callback uses a different structure depending
on whether it is a node change or a property change. This is silly, and
not very safe. Rework the code to use the same data structure regardless
of the type of notifier.

Add a node argument to __of_node_alloc() and rename it to
__of_node_dup() so that it can also be used to duplicate a node with
its properties. This is important for the overlay code so that it can
create new nodes without using separate changeset items for every single
property.
At the same time rework the overlay code to use the new function and
drop the extra changeset items.

The overlay code needs to construct a new full_name from the parent name
and the node name, but the current method has to allocate and then free
an temporary string which is wasteful. Fix this problem by using vargs
to pass in a format and arguments into __of_node_alloc().
At the same time remove the allocflags argument to __of_node_alloc().
The only users all use GFP_KERNEL, so there is no need to provide it as
an option. If there is ever a need later it can be added back.

Merge tag 'v3.18-rc6' into devicetree/next
v3.18-rc6 contains an important DT bug fix, c1a2086e2d, "of/selftest:
Fix off-by-one error in removal path" which affects testing of the
overlay patch series. Merge it into the devicetree/next staging branch
so that the overlay patches are applied on top of a known working tree.

The device tree structure is composed of two lists; the 'allnodes' list
which is a singly linked list containing every node in the tree, and the
child->parent structure where each parent node has a singly linked list
of children. All of the data in the allnodes list can be easily
reproduced with the parent-child lists, so of_allnodes is actually
unnecessary. Remove it entirely which saves a bit of memory and
simplifies the data structure quite a lot.

Introducing DT transactional support.
A DT transaction is a method which allows one to apply changes
in the live tree, in such a way that either the full set of changes
take effect, or the state of the tree can be rolled-back to the
state it was before it was attempted. An applied transaction
can be rolled-back at any time.

[glikely: Removed device notifiers and reworked to be more consistent]
Signed-off-by: Grant Likely <grant.likely@linaro.org>
Currently, devicetree reconfig notifiers get emitted before the change
is applied to the tree, but that behaviour is problematic if the
receiver wants the determine the new state of the tree. The current
users don't care, but the changeset code to follow will be making
multiple changes at once. Reorder notifiers to get emitted after the
change has been applied to the tree so that callbacks see the new tree
state.
At the same time, fixup the existing callbacks to expect the new order.
There are a few callbacks that compare the old and new values of a
changed property. Put both property pointers into the of_prop_reconfig
structure.
The current notifiers also allow the notifier callback to fail and
cancel the change to the tree, but that feature isn't actually used.
It really isn't valid to ignore a tree modification provided by firmware
anyway, so remove the ability to cancel a change to the tree.

PowerPC does an odd thing with dynamic nodes. It uses a notifier to
catch new node additions and set some of the values like name and type.
This makes no sense since that same code can be put directly into
of_attach_node(). Besides, all dynamic node users need this, not just
powerpc. Fix this problem by moving the logic out of arch/powerpc and
into drivers/of/dynamic.c.
It is also important to remove this notifier because we want to move the
firing of notifiers from before the tree is modified to after so that
the receiver gets a consistent view of the tree, but that is
incompatible with notifiers that modify the node.

The child pointer does not get cleared when attaching new nodes which
could cause the tree to be inconsistent. Clear the child pointer in
__of_attach_node() to be absolutely sure that the structure remains in a
consistent layout.

All of the DT modification functions are split into two parts, the first
part manipulates the DT data structure, and the second part updates
sysfs, but the code isn't very consistent about how the second half is
called. They don't all enforce the same rules about when it is valid to
update sysfs, and there isn't any clarity on locking.
The transactional DT modification feature that is coming also needs
access to these functions so that it can perform all the structure
changes together, and then all the sysfs updates as a second stage
instead of doing each one at a time.
Fix up the second have by creating a separate __of_*_sysfs() function
for each of the helpers. The new functions have consistent naming (ie.
of_node_add() becomes __of_attach_node_sysfs()) and all of them now
defer if of_init hasn't been called yet.
Callers of the new functions must hold the of_mutex to ensure there are
no race conditions with of_init(). The mutex ensures that there will
only ever be one writer to the tree at any given time. There can still
be any number of readers and the raw_spin_lock is still used to make
sure access to the data structure is still consistent.
Finally, put the function prototypes into of_private.h so they are
accessible to the transaction code.

The DT overlay code will need to manipulate nodes and properties while
already holding the devicetree lock, or on nodes that are not yet
attached to the tree, but the current helper functions don't allow that.
Extract the core behaviour from the accessors and create the following
unlocked variants.
The unlocked variants require either the lock to already be held or for
the nodes to be detached from the tree. Changes to live nodes will not
get updated in sysfs, so the caller must arrange for housekeeping to
take place after dropping the lock.
The new functions are: __of_add_property(), __of_remove_property(),
__of_update_property(), __of_attach_node() and __of_detach_node().
