Wouldn't this check succeed even if uname is "uefi" and the node
name is actually "uefiiiii"?  You might have to use strcmp.

Rather than writing the name check twice, I think it would be best to
code this loop as:

    for (offset = fdt_first_subnode(blob, offset);
         offset >= 0;
         offset = fdt_next_subnode(blob, offset)) {

         /* do name check */
