As discussed on IRC, I don't think this is required.

__of_add_property is called from three functions; __of_node_add(),
of_add_property() and of_modify_property(). __of_node_add is never
called on an unattached node. If the other two are getting called
early, then I think they should make the check. I'll modify my patch
to reflect that.

__of_node_add() never gets called before of_kset is initialized.

Why the kobject_init() move?
