Well, the test only runs during boot and better to free the space when
done with it. There was some desire to make it a kernel module and
then we'd also need to get rid of __init too.

More folks will run things if they can be enabled on production
kernels. If size is the only issue, modules mitigate that. However,
there's probably APIs to test which we don't want to export to
modules.

I think in general, we change things in the kernel when needed, not
for something in the future. Changing __init is simple enough to do
later.

OTOH, things get copied and maybe this we don't want copied, so we can
remove it if you want to.

You'd better write a checkpatch.pl check or else good luck enforcing that. :)

Makes sense. I think putting the test (of_property_match_string) on
one line furthers the readability.
