[PATCH v4] cxl: Fix possible null pointer dereference in read_handle()

[Ma Ke]

In read_handle(), of_get_address() may return NULL if getting address and
size of the node failed. When of_read_number() uses prop to handle
conversions between different byte orders, it could lead to a null pointer
dereference. Add NULL check to fix potential issue.

Found by static analysis.
