[PATCH v7 45/50] drivers/of: Avoid recursively calling unflatten_dt_node()

In current implementation, unflatten_dt_node() is called recursively
to unflatten device nodes in FDT blob. It's stress to limited stack
capacity.

This avoids calling the function recursively, meaning the device
nodes are unflattened in one call on unflatten_dt_node(): two arrays
are introduced to track the parent path size and the device node of
current level of depth, which will be used by the device node on next
level of depth to be unflattened. Also, the parameter "poffset" and
"fpsize" are unused and dropped.
