From: Frank Rowand <frank.rowand@sony.com>

This series is a different implementation to achieve the goals of
https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220623105044.152832-1-clement.leger@bootlin.com

In order to apply overlays or create new nodes under the root node, the
kernel expects of_root to be set. On some system where a device-tree was
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.

This series modifies init/main.c.  It was not clear to me whether
to add Linus to the distribution, or if the change should flow
through Rob.  (I did not add Linus.)

Frank Rowand (2):
  of: create of_root if no dtb provided
  of: unittest: treat missing of_root as error instead of fixing up
