Subject: [PATCH 1/2] of: overlay: Move devicetree_corrupt() check up

There is no point in doing several preparatory steps in
of_overlay_fdt_apply(), only to see of_overlay_apply() return early
because of a corrupt device tree.

Move the check for a corrupt device tree from of_overlay_apply() to
of_overlay_fdt_apply(), to check for this as early as possible.
