cpuidle: check dev before usage in cpuidle_use_deepest_state()
In case of there is no cpuidle devices registered, dev will be null, and panic will be triggered like below; In this patch, add checking of dev before usage, like that done in cpuidle_idle_call. Panic without fix: [ 184.961328] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at (null) [ 184.961328] IP: cpuidle_use_deepest_state+0x30/0x60 ...
