As I pointed out before, you can't fix up every possible error.  If someone
passes a 32-bit device tree to a 36-bit U-Boot, we can't fix that up
sanely.  But we can detect it, and give a useful message rather than a hang.

Perhaps some subset of the things that are checked (e.g. PCI addresses)
would me more appropriately updated by U-Boot, though.
