Geert Uytterhoeven e8b812b3e5 driver core: bus: Handle early calls to bus_to_subsys()
When calling soc_device_match() from early_initcall(), bus_kset is still
NULL, causing a crash:

    Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000028
    ...
    Call trace:
     __lock_acquire+0x530/0x20f0
     lock_acquire.part.0+0xc8/0x210
     lock_acquire+0x64/0x80
     _raw_spin_lock+0x4c/0x60
     bus_to_subsys+0x24/0xac
     bus_for_each_dev+0x30/0xcc
     soc_device_match+0x4c/0xe0
     r8a7795_sysc_init+0x18/0x60
     rcar_sysc_pd_init+0xb0/0x33c
     do_one_initcall+0x128/0x2bc

Before, bus_for_each_dev() handled this gracefully by checking that
the back-pointer to the private structure was valid.

Fix this by adding a NULL check for bus_kset to bus_to_subsys().

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
