Currently, using fdt_fixup_stdout() on a device tree that is missing
the relevant alias results in this:

WARNING: could not set linux,stdout-path FDT_ERR_NOTFOUND.
ERROR: /chosen node create failed
 - must RESET the board to recover.

FDT creation failed! hanging...### ERROR ### Please RESET the board ###

There is no reason for this to be a fatal error rather than a warning,
and removing this allows for a smooth transition on a platform where
the device tree currently lacks the correct aliases but will have them
in the future.

v2: Only continue booting if the problem was a missing alias, not
the inability to write to the device tree.
