We'd like to apply overlays to the root node in KUnit so we can test platform devices created as children of the root node.
On some architectures (powerpc), the root node isn't marked with OF_POPULATED_BUS. If an overlay tries to modify the root node on these platforms it will fail, while on other platforms, such as ARM, it will succeed. This is because the root node is marked with OF_POPULATED_BUS by of_platform_default_populate_init() calling of_platform_default_populate() with NULL as the first argument.
Loosen the requirement here so that platform devices can be created for nodes created as children of the root node via DT overlays even if the platform bus wasn't populated for the root node.
