[PATCH 02/45] libfdt: Fix undefined behaviour in fdt_offset_ptr()

From: David Gibson <david at gibson.dropbear.id.au>
Using pointer arithmetic to generate a pointer outside a known object is,
technically, undefined behaviour in C. Unfortunately, we were using that
in fdt_offset_ptr() to detect overflows.
To fix this we need to do our bounds / overflow checking on the offsets
before constructing pointers from them.
