dtc -I dts -O dtb -S 0x3000 -o obj_name.dtb source_name.dts
-S 指定的是生成的dtb文件的大小，需要適當地擴大，以供u-boot創(chuàng)建/choose節(jié)點時使用

內核如何解析設備樹
------------------------------------
1) 首先將從u-boot 傳遞過來的映像基地址和dtb 文件映像基地址保存通用寄存器r30,r31；

2) 通過調用machine_init() --> early_init_devtree()函數來獲
取內核前期初始化所需的bootargs,cmd_line等系統引導參數；

3) 調用start_kernel() --> setup_arch() -->
unflatten_device_tree()函數來解析dtb文件，構建一個由device_node結構連接而成的單項鏈表，并使用全局變量allnodes指針來保存這個鏈表的頭指針；

4) 內核調用OF提供的API函數獲取allnodes鏈表信息來初始化內核其他子系統、設備等。

將mdio設備節(jié)點添加到platform總線上，這樣添加方式(單獨添加某個節(jié)點)
比較麻煩，抽象度不夠，每個節(jié)點都需要自己的添加代碼，不科學
還是of_platform_bus_probe()比較好，統一添加allnodes下的所有節(jié)點
