Subject: [PATCH v4 1/9] drivers/of: Introduce of_node_alloc

We want to be able to generate "fake" device nodes that can be
used as an identifier for irq domains. For that, we reuse the
dynamic DT layer in order to generate DT nodes in a detached state
(so that it doesn't interfere with the rest of the tree).
