[PATCH] drivers: base: swnode: check if pointer p is null before dereferencing it

[Colin King]

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

The pointer p can be potentially null macro to_software_node can return
null.  Add null check on p before dereferencing it to avoid any null
pointer dereferences.

Detected by CoverityScan, CID#1476039 ("Explicit null dereferenced")

Fixes: 59abd83672f7 ("drivers: base: Introducing software nodes to the firmware node framework")
