This series fixes bugs of libfdt.
These functions were added by Thierry for U-boot only. So, we do not send it back to the DTC ML.
If they're not part of upstream dtc, why are they in the libfdt directory? Have they been sent upstream but not merged?

To avoid roadblocks we take patches in libfdt before they are merged upstream. I then tidy things up when I see them applied. So sometimes we are a little ahead of libfdt for a while. It works out OK since we need to sync with upstream regularly anyway.
That's fine, but from what Masahiro said, it sounded like there was no intent to ever push these to upstream dtc.
