RESEND [PATCH V3 0/4] powerpc/devtree: Add support for 'ibm, drc-info' property

[Michael Bringmann]

Several properties in the DRC device tree format are replaced by
more compact representations to allow, for example, for the encoding
of vast amounts of memory, and or reduced duplication of information
in related data structures.

"ibm,drc-info": This property, when present, replaces the following
four properties: "ibm,drc-indexes", "ibm,drc-names", "ibm,drc-types"
and "ibm,drc-power-domains".  This property is defined for all
dynamically reconfigurable platform nodes.  The "ibm,drc-info" elements
are intended to provide a more compact representation, and reduce some
search overhead.

"ibm,architecture.vec": Bidirectional communication mechanism between
the host system and the front end processor indicating what features
the host system supports and what features the front end processor will
actually provide.  In this case, we are indicating that the host system
can support the new device tree structure "ibm,drc-info".

Changes in V3:
  -- Achieved some code compression by passing data by structure
  -- Now passing more values by structure reducing use of local
     declarations / initialization.
  -- Improve some code spacing for better clarity.
