[PATCH master 7/7] bootm: booti: fix false positive uninitialized variable access

devicetree is only initialized when oftree is non-NULL and it's only
printed when oftree is non-NULL, so warning about devicetree use in the
printf looks like a false positive. Given that devicetree = *oftree, but
with a different type, we can avoid the warning and reduce devicetree
scope in the progress, by just using *oftree in the printf (%pad takes
a reference to phys_addr_t).
