For future reference, you don't need to send a github PR and a direct email. Either one is fine. In any case I've applied this with a manual correction from the email version, so I'm closing this.
Wasn't sure what the 'preferred' method is. If both are good then I'll stick with PRs.
Since Python 2.5 the argument parsing functions when parsing expressions such as s# (string plus length) expect the length to be an int or a ssize_t, depending on whether PY_SSIZE_T_CLEAN is defined or not.
Python 3.8 deprecated the use of int, and with Python 3.10 this symbol must be defined and ssize_t used[1].
Define the magic symbol when building the extension, and cast the ints from the libfdt API to ssize_t as appropriate.
