powerpc: Fix bug in kernel copy of libfdt's fdt_subnode_offset_namelen()
There's currently an off-by-one bug in fdt_subnode_offset_namelen() which causes it to keep searching after it's finished the subnodes of the given parent, and into the subnodes of siblings of the original node which come after it in the tree. This bug was introduced in commit ed95d7450dcbfeb45ffc9d39b1747aee82b49a51 ("powerpc: Update in-kernel dtc and libfdt to version 1.2.0"). A patch has already been submitted to dtc/libfdt mainline. We don't really want to pull in a new upstream version during the 2.6.28 cycle, but we should still fix this bug, hence this standalone version of the fix for the in-kernel libfdt.
