[PATCH 0/4] of: fdt: read blspec/FIT DT compat without unflattening

blspec and FIT systems usually have multiple entries/configurations,
where a suitable one should be selected at runtime by comparing each
against the board's barebox DT compatible.

For blspec, this meant we need to unflatten the whole DT only to access
a single property. For FIT, this meant we expected the configuration to
carry a "compatible" property and didn't even attempt to parse it out of
the fdt as fallback. Both are resolved with this series.

Ahmad Fatoum (4):
  of: fdt: factor out FDT header parsing
  of: fdt: implement fdt_machine_is_compatible
  blspec: don't parse whole device tree to compare compatibles
  FIT: support finding compatible configuration by FDT compatible
