OOB writes can be triggered when fdt->dt_size * 2 is still smaller than
the property for which memory should be allocated. This can happen under
rare circumstances when editing a fdt with the of_property command and a
property is larger than 128k in size.

This happend when editing a FIT image (which is a ftd) with the
of_property command and the Kernel image was around 8M in size.

The simplified call chain is the following:

of_property -> of_flatten_dtb -> create new fdt with 64k in size (this is
fixed) -> __of_flatten_dtb -> attempt to copy kernel image (8M) ->
fdt_ensure_space -> allocate only 128k for fdt->dt -> memcopy 8M into fdt->dt
buffer -> crash

The fix is to grow fdt->dt to hold at least the new property. The power
of 2 increment is untouched to keep the same behaviour otherwise.
