Hi Kumar, Wolfgang,

My current thought is that we need a place above libfdt where we can put 
our convenience (and difference-of-opinion ;-) utility routines.

I'm thinking
   common/fdt_support.c
would be the place for this.  Then Wolfgang G can put his fdt_* 
kernel-parallel routines (above) in there as well as the utility routine 
that Grant created (find & set, I forgot the exact name).
