Maximum length of a property name is defined by ePAPR (2.2.4.1) as
31 characters. Add a corresponding definition, including the trailing
null space.
Does dtc enforce this? It would be good to add if not.
As far as I can see there is nothing currently enforcing this in dtc.
There is no related check and too long property names are accepted
silently.
I'll try and see if I can prepare a patch for this, until someone more
familiar with dtc does it.
