Subject: [PATCH 02/17] powerpc: Add pseries update notifier for OFDT prop
 changes

From: Robert Jennings <rcj@...ux.vnet.ibm.com>

This adds an update notifier mechanism for changes to properties in the
device tree.  One use of this would be a device driver that needs to act
on changes to it's properties in the device tree after a live migration
or a dynamic activation that is triggered by updates to ofdt properties.
