Attempt to get address after initialization shouldn't fail on assert in
the qapi automatically generated code. As a possible solution, it can
return null type.

But at some point this address appears? May be we try to query it too early, or we need some more initialization steps?
For example, query address after object_new_with_class(). Without the patch it triggers assert(). I tried to implement the same solution as in hw/ppc/spapr_drc.c:prop_get_fdt

Isn't it better to report failure, when we try to query things that are not yet initialized?
Yes, maybe it should set errp after visit_type_null. And it should be a common error for unrealized devices to fix the same problem with MemoryRegion, etc.
