If overlay properties #address-cells or #size-cells are already in
the live devicetree for any given node, then the values in the
overlay must match the values in the live tree.

If the properties are already in the live tree then there is no
need to create a changeset entry to add them since they must
have the same value.  This reduces the memory used by the
changeset and eliminates a possible memory leak.  This is
verified by 12 fewer warnings during the devicetree unittest,
as the possible memory leak warnings about #address-cells and

Hi Frank,

If we get these ERROR messages, I suggest that this function should
return an error so the overlay will be rejected.

                        *(u32 *)prop->value != *(u32 *)new_prop->value) {

                       ret = -EINVAL;
                }

Otherwise there is an ERROR message, but it continues trying to apply
the invalid overlay anyway and I get an oops.  By adding the ret =
-EINVAL, the overlay gets rejected and the oops is avoided.

Add the ret = -EINVAL here also.  This give me the following (if my
overlay changes #address-cells):

[   21.167551] OF: overlay: ERROR: overlay and/or live tree
#address-cells invalid in node /soc/base_fpga_region
[   21.177442] OF: overlay: add_changeset_property ret=-22
[   21.182656] create_overlay: Failed to create overlay (err=-22)

Also, I wonder if the ERROR message could be more direct.  Currently
it says the #address-cells property is invalid but that doesn't say
anything about why it's invalid.  How about something like:

 OF: overlay: ERROR: changing #address-cells not allowed (/soc/base_fpga_region)

The 'OF: overlay' part still makes it clear it's overlay related.  The
rest of it makes it clear *why* it's invalid.  This ERROR will be a
surprise for people who have been using overlays, so that could be
helpful to light the way a bit.

Yes, that sounds good.

That sounds like a more useful message, maybe a slight change
s/changing #address-cells/changing value of #address-cells/
