That is the intent. With this change we stop storing the full path for
every node. Everywhere that needs the full path, generates it with the
%pOF printf specifier. Other than users in arch/sparc converted in
this series all the users of full_name have been converted already or
use kbasename(full_name) so they work either way. BTW, I've found a
couple more, so I'll be sending you a v2.

And of_pdt_build_full_name for !SPARC does need to be converted too,
but I'll do that separately.
