This change is fine, but in general I'm disinclined to invest too much
in the qemu interfaces for manipulating flattened trees.

I think our device tree manipulation in qemu is now complicated enough
that we should move towards using an unflattened (i.e. pointer based)
DT representation inside qemu, which is generally more suitable for
complex manipulation.

That would then get flattened into a blob for the guest in a single
pass at reset time.
