Nodes marked with this (boolean) property will have a writable status
sysfs file, which can be used to toggle them between "okay" and
"reserved", effectively hot-plugging them.  Note that this will only
be effective for devices on busses that register for OF reconfig
notifications (currently spi, i2c, and platform), and only if
CONFIG_OF_DYNAMIC is enabled.

If the general approach of this patch set is the correct way to provide the desired
functionality (I'm still pondering that), then a version of the following code
probably belongs in drivers/of/dynamic.c so that it is easier to maintain and keep
consistent with other dynamic devicetree updates.  If you look at the code there
that touches deadprops (eg __of_changeset_entry_apply()) you will notice that the
locking issues are more extensive than what is implemented here.

I'm still thinking about how this interacts with other forms of dynamic devicetree
changes (eg drivers/of/dynamic.c and also overlays).
