[PATCH 4/4] of: detect invalid phandle in overlay

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 




From: Frank Rowand <frank.rowand@xxxxxxxx>

Overlays are not allowed to modify phandle values of previously existing
nodes because there is no information available to allow fixup up
properties that use the previously existing phandle.
