Subject: [PATCH v4 2/13] Correct buffer parsing in update_dt_node()
Date: Wed, 24 Apr 2013 10:49:36 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <5177FF10.4000508@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <5177FB74.2050709@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

Correct parsing of the buffer returned from ibm,update-properties. The first
element is a length and the path to the property which is slightly different
from the list of properties in the buffer so we need to specifically
handle this.
