of: overlay: validate overlay properties #address-cells and #size-cells
If overlay properties #address-cells or #size-cells are already in the live devicetree for any given node, then the values in the overlay must match the values in the live tree. If the properties are already in the live tree then there is no need to create a changeset entry to add them since they must have the same value. This reduces the memory used by the changeset and eliminates a possible memory leak. Tested-by: Alan Tull <atull@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Frank Rowand <frank.rowand@sony.com>
