Assuming that there are several other nodes and a /chosen node in a DTS
and the /chosen node is last node, of_scan_flat_dt() will return 0 while
we expect it returns 1 when it's used to call a function to check if
there is only a /chosen node in DTS.

Fix this by passing a meaningful parameter instead of NULL to
of_scan_flat_dt() to record if it finds a node that is not /chosen node.

If those 'several other nodes' are not all subnodes of /chosen, at
least one of them will be at depth 1, right? Could you give an example
DTS where this goes wrong?

of_scan_flat_dt() will terminate early and return 1 on the first
occasion that the callback returns 1. The callback returns 1 if it
encounters a node at depth 1 whose name is not 'chosen'. So I am
failing to see how this code is broken.

While it is hardly a performance concern, you really don't need to
traverse the entire FDT to figure out that /chosen is not the only
depth 1 node.

Oh, I didn't see the !rc within the for() loop before. Sorry for the noise.
