[PATCH 1/3] of: Fix early OF builtup on kobj-ification

[Pantelis Antoniou]

When booting platforms that do very early OF initialization before
core_initcalls are performed of_init is called too late.

This results in a hard-hard without getting a chance to output anything.

Fixed by adding a flag that marks when init has been done, and
performing the per-node init at that time.
