I'm not happy with this patch.

It duplicates core functionality already present in drivers/of/dynamic.c and those
two implementations are for sure going to get out of sync.

If you require the self-tests to work without OF_DYNAMIC you can do that by including the
tests in your dts. If you want to insert them dynamically then use OF_DYNAMIC.
