[PATCH v2 6/7] HID: asus: do not abort probe when not necessary

[Denis Benato]

In order to avoid dereferencing a NULL pointer asus_probe is aborted early
and control of some asus devices is transferred over hid-generic after
erroring out even when such NULL dereference cannot happen: only early
abort when the NULL dereference can happen.

Also make the code shorter and more adherent to coding standards
removing square brackets enclosing single-line if-else statements.
