The idea is to have enough information in a dtb file to restore the tags
and phandle-refs. Look for "[PATCH] dtc: When compiling to dts interpret
/__symbols__ and /__local_fixups__" in your inbox.

Is this a request to improve the commit log? If so, maybe:

	dtc: Add an option to generate __local_fixups__ and __fixups__

	This records detailed usage of labels in a dtb that can
	later be used to restore labels when compiling back to dts
	format.

Best regards
Uwe
