Li, Fei 4b70137931 cpuidle: check dev before usage in cpuidle_use_deepest_state()
commit 41dc750ea6 upstream.

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.
