Do you think it would hurt to go with 4096 immediately? Python is not
the most efficient language so it should not matter. You can also copy
it to another object of the correct size, perhaps, to avoid memory
wastage.

Also can you please explain how swig works here? I'm a bit lost as to
the magic for calling fdt_get_path().
