The above is documentation on how to use it, but it isn't a good commit
message. The above should be moved into a documentation file (if it
isn't already and I've missed it) and the commit message should give
detail about what was needed, what was changed to make it happen, and
what the result of the new code is.

Despite all the APIs being prefixed with OpenFirmware, this isn't an
OpenFirmware interface, it is a device tree interface.

Tip: Insert lines in the middle of the block, roughly alphabetically
sorted. It cuts down on merge conflicts that way.

???
This file shouldn't even be compiled if CONFIG_OF_OVERLAY isn't
selected. Why is this here?

World writable? Am I reading this correctly?
DT modifications are privileged. A user can potentially get arbitrary
access to i2c, spi, gpio or other things that shouldn't be allowed. This
feature give access right into the Linux driver model.
Before this can be merged, it needs to be locked down, and there needs
to be documentation about how it is locked down. Owned by root is only
the first step, there also needs to be some rules about which nodes can
be modified by the configfs interface. By default think no modifications
should be allowed on a tree unless there are properties somewhere in the
tree that explicitly allow modifications to be performed.
Regardless, there needs to be a proposal made about the security model
so that it can be discussed and analyzed by folks better versed in
security that either of us. I would like to get Kees Cook to take a look
at what we are doing here.
