  git remote add stable git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git
  git fetch stable --tags
  git cherry-pick 663a18271

Or just update to a more recent kernel release.

Nope. offset(0x300) + size(0xfffff) > 0x10000, so it overlaps MBR partition.

If you really want an OF partition starting at byte offset 0x300 and ending
at 0xffffff includsive, you'd do

  reg = <0x300 0xffd00>;

Could be. You'd have to know how the on-disk partition table looks like,
but I'd guess that partitions are aligned to 1M boundaries and this is
as you describe directly beneath it.
