There are at least a couple of reasons why the unittest devicetree data
needs to remain after the point where devicetree unittests currently
complete. So cleaning up (removing the data) is not an option.
I depend on the unittest devicetree entries still existing after the system
boots and I can log into a shell for some validation of the final result of
the devicetree data.
There is also a desire for the devicetree unittests to be able to be loaded
as a module. That work is not yet scheduled, but I do not want to preclude
the possibility. If unittests are loaded from a module then they will
need some devicetree data to exist that is created in early boot. That
data will be in the devicetree when of_platform_sync_state_init() is
invoked.

Based on the above, "clean up" of the unittest data is not the solution.
I haven't looked at the mechanism in device_links_supplier_sync_state_resume()
that leads to the WARN yet. But is does not seem reasonable for that code
to be so sensitive to what valid data is in the devicetree that a WARN results.
