In scpsys_probe function, return value of of_match_device function which returns null is dereferenced without checking. Therefore, add a check for potential null dereference. Detected by CoverityScan, CID#1424087 "Dereference null return value"
No, this will never happen as the only way to probe this device is to use device tree.
