Hi Frank,

This will spew lots of "error 0" messages for every notifier that
returns NOTIFY_OK.

rmdir /sys/kernel/config/device-tree/overlays/1
[  131.972505] OF: overlay: overlay changeset pre-remove notifier
error 0, target: /soc/base_fpga_region/fpga_pr_region0
[  131.987879] OF: overlay: overlay changeset post-remove notifier
error 0, target: /soc/base_fpga_region/fpga_pr_region0

I could change fpga-region.c to return NOTIFY_STOP if it is accepting
the overlay, but it will still want to return NOTIFY_OK for every case
where it doesn't have an opinion.

Alan
