In [1], you are fixing possible NULL pointer dereferences arising from
of_get_address() and of_translate_address()
In this patch, however, you are only attempting to fix possible NULL
pointer dereferences arising from of_get_address().
Any reason why of_translate_address() doesn't need to be fixed here?

Also, since [1] and this patch are addressing possible NULL pointer
dereferences from similar functions, you may want to club them
together as a single patchset. Makes its easier for people to review.
