[PATCH] gpiolib: cdev: fix NULL-pointer dereferences

[Bartosz Golaszewski]

From: Bartosz Golaszewski <bartosz.golaszewski@xxxxxxxxxx>

There are several places where we can crash the kernel by requesting
lines, unbinding the GPIO device, then calling any of the system calls
relevant to the GPIO character device's annonymous file descriptors:
ioctl(), read(), poll().

While I observed it with the GPIO simulator, it will also happen for any
of the GPIO devices that can be hot-unplugged - for instance any HID GPIO
expander (e.g. CP2112).

This affects both v1 and v2 uAPI.

Fix this by simply checking if the GPIO chip pointer is not NULL.
