With -Wsign-compare, compilers warn about mismatching signedness in comparisons in fdt_offset_ptr(). This mostly stems from "offset" being passed in as a signed integer, even though the function would not really tolerate negative values. Short of changing the prototype, check that offset is not negative, and use an unsigned type internally.
