In fact, one of the few things I can think of that might justify
qemu's "abstraction" of the libfdt interface, is that the wrappers
could be modified to detect -FDT_ERR_NOSPACE and realloc()
appropriately.
Otherwise the wrappers, which are limited and not notably simpler to
use than the raw libfdt functions seem pretty pointless to me.
Not that I'm biased as the author of libfdt or anything :).
