The only protection against these pointers being accessed after the underlying data has been released by kfree() is by source code review of patches. Add a keyword line to the devicetree overlay maintainers entry to try to catch overlay notifier related patches. The keyword line is added to the devicetree overlay entry instead of the devicetree entry so that not all maintainers will receive the additional review traffic. Add Frank Rowand (already a maintainer in the devicetree entry) so that he will receive the additional review traffic.
