of: Fix NULL dereference in unflatten_and_copy()
Check whether initial_boot_params is NULL before dereferencing it in unflatten_and_copy_device_tree() for the case where no device tree is available but the arch can still boot to a minimal usable system without it. In this case also log a warning for when the kernel log buffer is obtainable.
