cpuidle: check dev before usage in cpuidle_use_deepest_state()

commit 41dc750e 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.

Panic without fix:
