I'd prefer a different name for this - and possibly it should go in a
different file.  The data_* prefix should be for functions that
actually manipulate struct data objects.

And I'd really prefer to keep the yyblah junk confined to the parser
code.  I think it would be better to move this function into
dtc-parser.y

Otherwise looks pretty good.
