OK, although in practice there is almost no chance that a valid tree
blob will contain no symbols.

The comment is valid; there are auto generated properties and name is
one of them. Overlays should work even on really old dtb versions.

OK, but could only happen on really badly formatted (even maliciously
so) properties.
