OF: DT-Overlay configfs interface



This is a port of Pantelis Antoniou's v3 port that makes use of the
new upstreamed configfs support for binary attributes.

Original commit message:

Add a runtime interface to using configfs for generic device tree overlay
usage. With it its possible to use device tree overlays without having
to use a per-platform overlay manager.

Please see Documentation/devicetree/configfs-overlays.txt for more info.

Changes since v2:
- Removed ifdef CONFIG_OF_OVERLAY (since for now it's required)
- Created a documentation entry
- Slight rewording in Kconfig

Changes since v1:
- of_resolve() -> of_resolve_phandles().

DT configfs: fix build error

There is an error when compiling rpi-4.6.y branch:
  CC      drivers/of/configfs.o
drivers/of/configfs.c:291:21: error: initialization from incompatible pointer type [-Werror=incompatible-pointer-types]
   .default_groups = of_cfs_def_groups,
                     ^
drivers/of/configfs.c:291:21: note: (near initialization for 'of_cfs_subsys.su_group.default_groups.next')

The .default_groups is linked list since commit
1ae1602d.
This commit uses configfs_add_default_group to fix this problem.

configfs: New of_overlay API

of: configfs: Use of_overlay_fdt_apply API call

The published API to the dynamic overlay application mechanism now
takes a Flattened Device Tree blob as input so that it can manage the
lifetime of the unflattened tree. Conveniently, the new API call -
of_overlay_fdt_apply - is virtually a drop-in replacement for
create_overlay, which can now be deleted.
