From: Florian Fainelli on
If a driver calls mfd_add_device with a NULL argument for the mem_base resource
we will end up dereferencing it without checking for its validity here:
res[r].start = mem_base->start cell->resources[r].start; (line 53 of mfd-core.c)

This patch adds the checking on the mem_base argument and bails out accordingly
if it is NULL.
