#1629205 — [PATCH 3/3] of: detect invalid phandle in overlay

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

Overlays are not allowed to modify phandle values of previously existing
nodes because there is no information available to allow fixup up of
properties that use the previously existing phandle.
