of/promtree: allow DT device matching by fixing 'name' brokenness (v5)
Commit e2f2a93b, "of/promtree: add package-to-path support to pdt" changed dp->name from using the 'name' property to using package-to-path. This fixed /proc/device-tree creation by eliminating conflicts between names (the 'name' property provides names like 'battery', whereas package-to-path provides names like '/foo/bar/battery@0', which we stripped to 'battery@0'). However, it also breaks of_device_id table matching. The fix that we _really_ wanted was to keep dp->name based upon the name property ('battery'), but based dp->full_name upon package-to-path ('battery@0'). This patch does just that. This changes all users (except SPARC) of promtree to use the full result from package-to-path for full_name, rather than stripping the directory out. In practice, the strings end up being exactly the same; this change saves time, code, and memory. SPARC continues to use the existing build_path_component() code. v2: combine two patches and revert of_pdt_node_name to original version v3: use dp->phandle instead of passing around node v4: warn/bail out for non-sparc archs if pkg2path is not set v5: split of_pdt_build_full_name into sparc & non-sparc versions v6: Pass NULL to pkg2path before buf gets assigned. Drop check for pkg2path hook on each and every node. v7: Don't BUG() when unable to get the full_path; create a known-unique name instead.
