Barebox of_find_node_by_path requires a node to be passed as start node

user of it in barebox is passing anything else than the root node.
Therefore, the device_node argument is removed and all current users of
that function are updated to reflect the API change.
This is a patch I'm not quite happy with. devicetree is such a nice data
structure that it can be useful for other purposes than just a
singular tree for describing the hardware layout.
Maybe we should rename the current implementatiion to
of_find_node_by_path_from() and add a of_find_node_by_path() which calls
this with root_node as first argument?
Agree, I droped a similar patch removing root node passing from
of_print_cmdline() because I realized that root_node is only for the
installed device tree.
Will have in mind for a v2.
