[ Upstream commit 6211e9cb2f8faf7faae0b6caf844bfe9527cc607 ]
Trying to boot without SYSFS, but with OF_DYNAMIC quickly
results in a crash:
[ 0.088460] Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000070

While not having sysfs isn't a very common option these days,
it is still expected that such configuration would work.
Paper over it by bailing out from __of_attach_node_sysfs() if
CONFIG_SYSFS isn't enabled.

[ Upstream commit 8a325dd06f2358ea0888e4ff1c9ca4bc23bd53f3 ]
The problem in this code is that if kobject_add() fails, then it should
call of_node_put(np) to drop the reference count. I've actually moved
the of_node_get(np) later in the function to avoid needing to do clean
up.

There is a matching of_node_put() in __of_detach_node_sysfs()
Remove misleading comment from function header comment for
of_detach_node().
This patch may result in memory leaks from code that directly calls
the dynamic node add and delete functions directly instead of
using changesets.
This commit should result in powerpc systems that dynamically
allocate a node, then later deallocate the node to have a
memory leak when the node is deallocated.
The next commit will fix the leak.

Having device_nodes be kobjects is only needed if sysfs or OF_DYNAMIC is
enabled. Otherwise, having a kobject in struct device_node is
unnecessary bloat in minimal kernel configurations.
Likewise, bin_attribute is only needed in struct property when sysfs is
enabled, so we can make it configurable too.
