Subject: [PATCH 0/3] of: generic infrastructure fixes

The first patch renames the *_node_sysfs methods to _node_post since
this is more accurate when more work takes place besides sysfs
tweaking when the next patch is using a hashtable for phandles.
This is a win for very large blobs with a large number of phandles.
Current we use an exhaustive search which is not optimal at all.

Finally, a long standing request of applied overlays populating
the symbol list is implemented; this allows staggered overlay
application with a symbol from a previous overlay being used
by another after it.

Pantelis Antoniou (3):
  of: rename *_node_sysfs to _node_post
  of: Support hashtable lookups for phandles
  of: overlay: Pick up label symbols from overlays.
