gpiolib: Fix NULL pointer deference
Under some circumstances, a gpiochip might be half cleaned from the gpio_device list. This patch makes sure that the chip pointer is still valid, before calling the match function. [ 104.088296] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000090 [ 104.089772] IP: [<ffffffff813d2045>] of_gpiochip_find_and_xlate+0x15/0x80 [ 104.128273] Call Trace: [ 104.129802] [<ffffffff813d2030>] ? of_parse_own_gpio+0x1f0/0x1f0 [ 104.131353] [<ffffffff813cd910>] gpiochip_find+0x60/0x90 [ 104.132868] [<ffffffff813d21ba>] of_get_named_gpiod_flags+0x9a/0x120 ...
