This reverts commit f170d44bc4ec2feae5f6206980e7ae7fbf0432a0.

USB core will never call a USB-driver probe function with a NULL
device-id pointer.

Reverting before removing the existing checks in order to document this
and prevent the offending commit from being "autoselected" for stable.

I'll queue these two to v5.4.

Actually I'll take that back. Commit f170d44bc4ec is in -next so I have
to also queue these to -next.

That's right. I'm assuming you don't rebase your branches, otherwise
just dropping the offending patch might of course be an option instead
of the revert.

Yeah, I don't rebase my trees so we have to do a revert.
