[PATCH] thermal: gov_power_allocator: Fix NULL pointer dereference in update_tz()

power_allocator_update_tz() unconditionally derives the trip descriptor of
params->trip_max as below,
  const struct thermal_trip_desc *td = trip_to_trip_desc(params->trip_max);
and then walks td->thermal_instances. However, params->trip_max is allowed
to be NULL and in that case the list walk dereferences a bogus pointer
derived from NULL which oops the kernel.

get_governor_trips() picks trip_switch_on and trip_max out of the trip
table of the zone. When the zone has neither a passive nor an active trip
point, last_active is NULL and params->trip_max is left NULL. This is an
explicitly supported configuration, as documented in the function
get_governor_trips() as below,
  If there are no passive or active trip points, then the governor won't
  do anything. In fact, its throttle function won't be called at all.

Return early from power_allocator_update_tz() when params->trip_max is NULL
and only compute the trip descriptor after that check. There is nothing to
update in that case anyway, with no trip_max and there are no thermal
instances for the governor to account for, num_actors stays zero and
total_weight is irrelevant.
