raspberrypi: dtc: Prevent overlays from modifying phandle properties

The cma-overlay fragment included in vc4-fkms-v3d-overlay ends up with
a phandle property within the __overlay__ fragment due to the references
to this fragment from the __overrides__ section. So when this overlay
fragment is applied it was modifying the phandle of the target node,
breaking other references to this node in the base dtb and breaking the
resolution of symbols within the fdt.

The failure is seen in the create-combined-dtb recipe but the best place
to fix this is in libfdt itself. When applying an overlay fragment, if
both the target node and the overlay fragment contain phandle properties
we skip modification of the target node phandle. The included patch has
been submitted upstream for review.

+ properties
+To: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>,
+    Jon Loeliger <jdl@jdl.com>,
+    devicetree-compiler@vger.kernel.org
+Cc: Rob Herring <robh@kernel.org>,

+
+When applying an overlay fragment, we should take care not to overwrite
+an existing phandle property of the target node as this could break
+references to the target node elsewhere in the base dtb.
+
+In addition to potentially breaking references within the resulting fdt,
+if the overlay is built with symbols enabled (`-@` option to dtc) then
+fdtoverlay will be unable to merge the overlay with a base dtb file.
+
+A new test case is added to check how fdtoverlay handles this case.
+Attempting to apply this test overlay without the fix in this patch
+results in the following output:
+
+    input  = tests/overlay_base_ref.test.dtb
+    output = tests/overlay_overlay_ref.fdtoverlay.dtb
+    overlay[0] = tests/overlay_overlay_ref.test.dtb
+
+    Failed to apply 'tests/overlay_overlay_ref.test.dtb': FDT_ERR_NOTFOUND
+
+In this test case the __overlay__ node in question does not explicitly
+contain a phandle property in the dts file, the phandle is added during
+compilation as it is referenced by another node within the overlay dts.
+
+This failure occurs due to a sequence of events in the functions called
+by fdt_overlay_apply():
+
+1) In overlay_fixup_phandles(), the target of the overlay fragment is
+   looked up and the target property is set to the phandle of the target
+   node.
+
+2) In overlay_merge(), the target node is looked up by phandle via
+   overlay_get_target(). As the __overlay__ node in this test case
+   itself has a phandle property, the phandle of the target node is
+   modified.
+
+3) In overlay_symbol_update(), the target node is again looked up by
+   phandle via overlay_get_target(). But this time the target node
+   cannot be found as its phandle property was modified.
+
+The fix for this issue is to skip modification of the phandle property
+of the target node in step (2) of the above sequence. If the target node
+doesn't already contain a phandle property, we can add one without risk.
