Sync to upstream dtc commit 53bf130b1cdd ("libfdt: simplify
fdt_node_check_compatible()"). This adds the following commits from
upstream:

53bf130 libfdt: simplify fdt_node_check_compatible()
c9d9121 Warn on node name unit-address presence/absence mismatch
2e53f9d Catch unsigned 32bit overflow when parsing flattened device tree offsets

Signed-off-by: Rob Herring <robh@kernel.org>
---
As usual, this is just an automated copy of upstream dtc into the kernel 
tree. The changeset is small enough that I have left it here.

The main reason for this sync is to pick-up the new unit-address 
warnings.

I gave this a try. Obviously it finds many abuses that should be fixed.

However, I'm wondering about the following, where the unit-address is just
used to distinguish between multiple instances:

    Warning (unit_address_vs_reg): Node /cache-controller@0 has a unit
name, but no reg property
        compatible = "cache";
    Warning (unit_address_vs_reg): Node /regulator@1 has a unit name,
but no reg property
        compatible = "regulator-fixed"
    Warning (unit_address_vs_reg): Node /i2c@2 has a unit name, but no
reg property
        compatible = "i2c-gpio"

How should these be fixed?

BTW, there seems to be a missing dependency of the DTBs on the dtc itself.
Applying your patch and running "make dtbs" didn't rebuilt any DTBs.

Thanks!

This spews a crazy amount of warnings on a multi_v7_defconfig build.

I'd prefer to see most of those warnings fixed _before_ we introduce
it by default. Otherwise we just add a huge amount of noise that will
hide any real valid warnings that are now brought up.

Shocking, huh? And I've got more checks in the works. :)

How do you propose to do that? If it is not enabled, then no one will
see them nor care. I don't intend to fix everyone's stuff myself. We
could hide the check behind COMPILE_TEST perhaps.

Just add a reg property. The values should probably match the MPIDR in
some way (e.g. 0 and 100).

Regulators are oddball in that the node names are generally supposed
to be the regulator name not generic.

You all should have all the on-chip devices under a simple-bus, then
you would not have this namespace collision here. Still you could have
2 i2c-gpio devices. We can add reg in those cases.

Should probably fix, but It is rare that that would actually matter.

it's not "just" adding a reg property.
It's also introducing a "cache" subnode with "#address-cells = <1>" and
"#size-cells = <0>", and perhaps adding code to make the subnode work.
Or moving them under the cpu node, which is actually what the example in
ePAPR shows.

Fair enough.

Indeed.
And it's not "just" adding a reg property. More "#address-cells = <1>" and
"#size-cells = <0>" glue needed here, too.
And an update of Documentation/devicetree/bindings/i2c/i2c-gpio.txt

Right, but pushing a change on everyone that makes the build
near-unusable as a tool to see if you're introducing a new error is
also not a good way to do it. However:

> We could hide the check behind COMPILE_TEST perhaps.

Putting it behind an option sounds like a suitable approach. Would it
be possible to plumb in under "make C=1" / "make C=2" instead? That's
closer in meaning to what you're doing here than COMPILE_TEST, which
is more about turning on drivers that might not make sense on your
platform to get compile coverage.

This would make people aware of the tool, give them an easy way to run
it to do the cleanups. Nag maintainers when they post new code without
having paid attention to the old sources/cleanup, and with some amount
of time most of it might be fixed.

C=1/2 is only designed to run on C files, so it would be a bit of work
to extend it. However, "W=1" seems like a better match and easy to
add:

I added the ability to do "make DTC=my/dtc", so there already is a way
for people to run it if they want to. Of course, they'd have to fetch
and build dtc compared to the above. Still, with either option it is
dependent on people running something they don't likely run normally.

Is it correct to move the cache-controller nodes under the cpus node?
Else the reg properties don't match #address/size-cells?

IIRC, the ePAPR^W DTSpec says that is valid.

If there's no mmio access then yes, I think under /cpus makes sense.
The ARM /cpus code may throw a warning on this, but we should quiet it
down.
