[PATCH 1/2] powerpc/pseries: Move property cloning into its own routine

Move property cloning code into its own routine

Split the pieces of dlpar_clone_drconf_property() that create a copy of
the property struct into its own routine. This allows for creating
clones of more than just the ibm,dynamic-memory property used in memory
hotplug.
