[PATCH 0/3] DT validation time improvements

[Rob Herring]

The time to run dt_binding_check and dtbs_check has gotten
significantly slower as the number of schemas has increased. There's 2 
main factors causing validation time on each file to be slow. 

The first is python start-up time. This is a common problem for python 
without much of a solution other than minimizing module imports. 
Eliminating some imports was possible for dt-extract-example, but not 
the other tools. Validating multiple files in a single call is the 
simplest solution. The downside of processing multiple files in one call 
is losing make dependency handling. This is not too important for 
dt-doc-validate as the validation time is <10 sec. 

The 2nd factor is processed-schema*.yaml is now ~2MB and around 2 sec to 
parse (which is done for every .dts and example). Switching 
processed-schema*.yaml to JSON is much faster to parse 

The overall result of these changes is a 2x improvement to dtbs_check 
and a 4-5x improvement to dt_binding_check.
