The property 'no-dependencies' is virtual property and will not be added
to any output file.
Hmm, I think it should be non-virtual, otherwise a dtb isn't
reproducible. That means dtc -> dtb -> dts (fdtdump) -> dtb would
produce a different dtb if no-dependencies was used to avoid an
automatic dependency.
But a dtb doesn't have phandles. After all that's why I had to introduce 
the property dependencies. So no-dependencies doesn't make sense in a 
.dtb, the virtual nature of no-dependencies makes sense and the patch is 
fine.

Looks like I had a weak moment yesterday evening. ;)
