Subject: of/fdt: fix error checking for earlycon address

commit 3f5ceec96470050d20d7281d49985e3b1cfc3995 upstream.

fdt_translate_address() returns OF_BAD_ADDR on error.  It is defined as
a u64 value, so the variable "addr" should be defined as u64 as well.

Fixes: fb11ffe74c79 ("of/fdt: add FDT serial scanning for earlycon")
