    Pull devicetree changes from Grant Likely:
     "Lots of activity in the devicetree code for v3.18.  Most of it is
      related to getting all of the overlay support code in place, but there
      are other important things in there.
    
      Highlights:
    
       - OF_RECONFIG notifiers for SPI, I2C and Platform devices.  Those
         subsystems can now respond to live changes to the device tree.
    
       - CONFIG_OF_OVERLAY method for applying live changes to the device
         tree
    
       - Removal of the of_allnodes list.  This used to be used to iterate
         over all the nodes in the device tree, but it is unnecessary
         because the same thing can be done by iterating over the list of
         child pointers.  Getting rid of of_allnodes saves some memory and
         avoids the possibility of of_allnodes being sorted differently from
         the child lists.
    
       - Support for retrieving original DTB blob via sysfs.  Needed by
         kexec.
    
       - More unittests
    
       - Documentation and minor bug fixes"
