Sometimes it needs to check if there is a node in FDT by full path.
Introduce this helper to get the specified name subnode if it exists.

Wouldn't this check succeed even if uname is "uefi" and the node
name is actually "uefiiiii"?  You might have to use strcmp.
Ah, yes. Will fix this.

Rather than writing the name check twice, I think it would be best to
code this loop as:

    for (offset = fdt_first_subnode(blob, offset);
         offset >= 0;
         offset = fdt_next_subnode(blob, offset)) {

         /* do name check */

Thanks for your suggestion. Will change this.
