Thomas Petazzoni 582da6527d of: make of_update_property() usable earlier in the boot process 
Commit 75b57ecf9d ('of: Make device
nodes kobjects so they show up in sysfs') has turned Device Tree nodes
in kobjects and added a sysfs based representation for Device Tree
nodes. Since the sysfs logic is only available after the execution of
a core_initcall(), the patch took precautions in of_add_property() and
of_remove_property() to not do any sysfs related manipulation early in
the boot process.

However, it forgot to do the same for of_update_property(), which if
used early in the boot process (before core_initcalls have been
called), tries to call sysfs_remove_bin_file(), and crashes:

---[ end Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill the idle task!

To fix this problem, we simply skip the sysfs related calls in
of_update_property(), and rely on of_init() to fix up things when it
will be called, exactly as is done in of_add_property() and
of_remove_property().
