After all the good advice from Scott et al., the patch turns into a 
pretty trivial one-liner.  I am questioning the advantage of calling
   do_fixup_by_path_string(fdt, path, prop, status);
vs. simply calling
   do_fixup_by_path(fdt, path, prop, status, strlen(status) + 1, 1);

The do_fixup_by_path_string() saves two parameters
   "strlen(status) + 1, 1"
at the cost of Yet Another Function.  Is it worth it?

Thanks,
