Hi,

I can't really see anything that would prevent me to have a phandle
property taking a full-path to a node, but this produces a syntax error.
Let's say we have this:

/dts-v1/;

/ {
	soc@0 {
		somenode@deafbeef {
		};

		someothernode@cafebabe {
			handle = <&/soc@0/somenode@deafbeef>;
		};
	};
};

Does this sound like something that should work?
