Remind me, what is the reason for not wanting to refcount unattached
nodes? I would think that doing a refcount is still desirable, even if
it doesn't show up in sysfs.

I know we talked about this on IRC, but I don't remember the conclusion
we came to.

I'm concerned about this whole approach. It "feels" wrong to me.
Perhaps the mistake is to having the unflatten routine be the one also
adding the nodes to the tree. The whole thing could be sidestepped if
unflattening the data structure was a completely separate step from
attaching it to the live tree.

We could rework fdt.c (and pdt.c) to not touch allnodes at all and then
have a separate function that walks the unflattened device tree and
attaches the lot at once. That would make it easier for you to grab an
unflattened tree and work with it before adding nodes to the core tree.

I'm pretty sure the notifier is where it is to allow a notifier callback
to intercepted it before it gets attached to the tree. I suspect this
change will break prom_reconfig_notifier. Notifying after
attachment, or before removal will require a separate set of notifiers.
