[v3,5/6] of: dynamic: Move dead property list check into property add/update functions
Commit Message
The changeset code checks for a property in the deadprops list when
adding/updating a property, but of_add_property() and
of_update_property() do not. As the users of these functions are pretty
simple, they have not hit this scenario or else the property lists
would get corrupted.
With this there are 3 cases of removing a property from either deadprops
or properties lists, so add a helper to find and remove a matching
property.

v3:
- Make the helper remove a property from either deadprops or properties
lists
- Keep existing style in deadprops loop
v2:
- Add helper to remove property from deadprops list

Perhaps this needs a Fixes tag?

I didn't simply because in the decades that these functions existed,
no one cared. It would require a specific sequence of calls which we
could pretty much determine doesn't happen just looking at the callers
in the kernel.
