Currently platforms/drivers needing to get the machine model name are
replicating the same snippet of code. In some case, the OF reference
counting is either missing or incorrect.
This patch adds support to read the machine model name either using
the "model" or the "compatible" property in the device tree root node.

I like the idea. One small comment:
Thanks. I prefer it as single patch but it can't be applied to any tree.
Any suggestions on handling this patch to fix the warning in -next ?
The patch that causes the warning is currently in the mmc tree, and I
don't think it would be good to have your entire patch in there too.
It's probably best to just fix the warning there now by adding another
open-coded copy of that function, and then apply your patch on top
for v4.11.
Sure, that's much simpler to deal with for now.
