I still think this should use another identifier like
%pO for object then another letter for type of object
maybe N for node.

And F is flags, f is name

I think there should be another function to get
a particular struct device_node * at a particular
depth to avoid all the pointers on stack.

Basically, adapt the for (i = depth - 1 loop to
a function that returns nodes[i]
