[PATCH 1/1] omap: Ptr "isr_reg" tracked as NULL was dereferenced

[Evgeny Kuznetsov]

From: Evgeny Kuznetsov <ext-eugeny.kuznetsov@xxxxxxxxx>

Value of "isr_reg" pointer is depend on configuration and GPIO method.
Potentially it may have NULL value and it is dereferenced later 
in code. If pointer is NULL there is some kernel bug.
Log line and 'BUG' macro are added to halt code execution in this case.
