of: unittest: fix null pointer dereferencing in of_unittest_find_node_by_name()
[ Upstream commit d6ce4f0ea19c32f10867ed93d8386924326ab474 ]
when kmalloc() fail to allocate memory in kasprintf(), name
or full_name will be NULL, strcmp() will cause
null pointer dereference.
Fixes: 0d638a07d3a1 ("of: Convert to using %pOF instead of full_name")
