Now match_init_data() returns NULL if !CONFIG_OF, so idata may be NULL.

Then I think we may hit NULL pointer dereference here:

                switch (pmic->desc[i].id) {
                case MAX8907_MBATT:
                        mbatt_rail_name = idata->constraints.name;
                        break;

Axel
