Subject: [PATCH v2] HID: rmi: check that report ids exist in the report_id_hash before accessing their size

It is possible that the hid-rmi driver could get loaded onto a device which does not have the
expected report ids. This should not happen because it would indicate that the hid-rmi driver is
not compatible with that device. However, if it does happen it should return an error from probe
instead of dereferencing a null pointer.

Added hid_err messages as suggested by Benjamin. This fixes the null pointer dereference from
bug 80091 while the next patch addresses the binding issue in hid-core.
