Subject: [PATCH] HID: wacom: Prevent potential null dereference after disconnect

Repeated connect/disconnect cycles under GNOME can trigger an occasional
OOPS from within e.g. wacom_led_select_store, presumably due to a timing
issue where userspace begins setting a value immediately before the
device disconnects and our shared data is whisked away.
