We were testing the value of a volatile variable inside a zassert,
which static analysis doesn't like. In principle, it might be
volatile because it's an MMIO register or something and the read is a
side effect, and an assertion will be optionally compiled. (Except
here the value is just regular memory marked volatile for
threadsafety, and zassert will never be elided in a test, but the tool
doesn't know that).
Refactor a little so we always read the variable in a way the tool can
detect is consistent.
