Hi David, Jon,

Here is another fairly trivial patch for dtc.  It adds -h to get the 
usage message.  It adds -q (-qq/-qqq) to suppress warnings/errors.
It removes the -R option which is advertised but does nothing
useful.

NAK.  -R does do something that I believe is useful.

Hi David,

-R sets a local variable reservenum to the specified value.  Nobody uses 
reservenum, hence my conclusion that it does nothing useful.

Oops, looks like -R got broken when /memreserve/ was implemented.
It's supposed to add extra, empty, entries into the reserve map for
the benefit of dumb bootloaders that want to add reserve entries
without having to rearrange the blob.
