Fwiw > the code size change is +276 bytes on my setup. That might not sound like a lot, but the overhead of DT in U-Boot is about 3KB, so this adds nearly 10%. The specific problem is that when U-Boot SPL gets too big boards don't boot. Because we take the upstream libfdt this will affect U-Boot.

Basically the only > difference is that fdt_get_string() returns the length as well. OK.
