Hi Kumar,
Thanks for working on this. I cleaned up my u-boot-fdt subrepo in preparation for the next round of improvements, of which this will be the base.
I've been thinking about how best to do the unfork libfdt and how best to stay in sync down the road, but I don't have any good ideas other than to just do it. Down the road, we could try to cherrypick just the libfdt changes (assuming David and Jon keep libfdt changes distinct from dtc changes in their patches), or we can have an Project Orion approach: lots of big bangs. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_Orion_%28nuclear_propulsion%29
FWIIW, I thought about doing our unfork via applying libfdt patches from the dtc repository - according to my README, I started from commit 857f54e79f74429af20c2b5ecc00ee98af6a3b8b which is in there. Hmmmmm, something to think about. That would help with the size of the patch (one Project Orion patch or a bunch of smaller ones), it would be nice for tracking who changed what and why, but it will be a fair amount of work (and some scripting) to identify the applicable libfdt patches.
