I have to include <linux/sizes.h> to get this to build.

Also, even though /proc/device-tree-overlay is supposed to be write only, I get
this:

# cat /proc/device-tree-overlay
cat: [ 651.973568] overlay_proc_release: failed to unflatten tree
/proc/device-tree-overlay: Input/output error

which seems to be a bit odd. I did not spend any time to track it down, though.

Otherwise, the code seems to be working well.

Thanks,
Guenter
