Subject: [PATCH v4 1/1] of: unittest: overlay: ensure proper alignment of copied FDT

From: Frank Rowand <frank.rowand@...y.com>

The Devicetree standard specifies an 8 byte alignment of the FDT.
Code in libfdt expects this alignment for an FDT image in memory.
kmemdup() returns 4 byte alignment on openrisc.  Replace kmemdup()
with kmalloc(), align pointer, memcpy() to get proper alignment.

The 4 byte alignment exposed a related bug which triggered a crash
on openrisc with:
commit 79edff12060f ("scripts/dtc: Update to upstream version v1.6.0-51-g183df9e9c2b9")
as reported in:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210327224116.69309-1-linux@roeck-us.net/

Reported-by: Guenter Roeck <linux@...ck-us.net>
Signed-off-by: Frank Rowand <frank.rowand@...y.com>

---

changes since version 1:
  - use pointer from kmalloc() for kfree() instead of using pointer that
    has been modified for FDT alignment

changes since version 2:
  - version 1 was a work in progress version, I failed to commit the following
    final changes
  - reorder first two arguments of of_overlay_apply()

changes since version 3:
  - size of memory allocation and size of copy after pointer alignment
    differ, use separate variables with correct values for each case
  - edit comment to more clearly describe that ovcs->fdt is the allocated
    memory region, which may be different than where the aligned pointer points
  - remove unused parameter from of_overlay_apply()
