of: Move dynamic node fixups out of powerpc and into common code
PowerPC does an odd thing with dynamic nodes. It uses a notifier to catch new node additions and set some of the values like name and type. This makes no sense since that same code can be put directly into of_attach_node(). Besides, all dynamic node users need this, not just powerpc. Fix this problem by moving the logic out of arch/powerpc and into drivers/of/dynamic.c. It is also important to remove this notifier because we want to move the firing of notifiers from before the tree is modified to after so that the receiver gets a consistent view of the tree, but that is incompatible with notifiers that modify the node.
