Doh! However, that does make the unit test pass and I don't see a NULL ptr...

This is not work for me. I'm booting x86 with the DT unit test and
KASAN enabled. I suspect our differences are due to different data
after the end of the dtb. Also, I think there may be a bug in
fdt_next_node FDT_END handling. The "!depth" seems suspicious to me
and I think it should be "!(*depth)".

The DT overlay unit tests are also failing. Not sure if that's related.
