IMO we shouldn't increase the dependency on libfdt. The fdt format is a
nice storage format, but it sucks for modifying the tree.
I created some patches to get rid of libfdt entirely yesterday. They are
not complete yet, but removing libfdt has some nice effects:

- Smaller binaries
- No more parallel universes of fdt and internal trees. This currently makes the
  devicetree code messy
- I trimmed down the overhead of unflattening/flattening significantly.
  It still adds some overhead to do it, but manipulating the tree is a
  factor of 50 faster which means once you have multiple manipulations
  of the tree it reduces the overhead to a net win.
