[PATCH v1 0/2] of: populate of_root node if not set

From: Clément Léger

In order to apply overlays or create new nodes under the root node, the
kernel expects of_root to be set. On some system were a device-tree us
not provided by firmware (x86 for instance) if CONFIG_OF is enabled,
then we will end up with a null of_root. This series add support to
create this root node using a builtin dtb and remove the manual
creation of the root node done in unittests.c.

Clément Léger (2):
of: base: populate of_root node if not set
of: unittest: remove check for of_root
