[RFC/PATCH 4/4] dtc: Add /expansion/ support

From: Stephen Boyd
Date: Mon Jan 30 2017 - 19:04:54 EST


There's typically a standard pinout for expansion boards on
platforms like raspberry pi, 96boards, C.H.I.P, etc. Introduce a
new syntax to describe these types of expansion boards in
devicetree.

In general, the resulting dtb format is very similar to the
/plugin/ style of overlays, except the 'target' property in the
fragment node is replaced with a 'target-alias' property that
contains a string instead of a phandle.

fragment@0 {
target-alias = "i2c_1";
};

instead of

fragment@0 {
target = <&i2c_1>;
};
