Subject: Null pointer dereference in cros-ec-typec

My distribution recently enabled the Chrome OS EC Type C control driver
in its kernel builds.  On my Google Pixelbook i7 (eve), the driver reports
a null pointer dereference at boot.  From what I can tell, this happens
because typec->ec is set to NULL in cros_typec_probe.  Other drivers,
like cros-usbpd-notify, appear to be set up to handle this case.  As a
result of this bug, I'm no longer able to reboot my computer, because
udevd hangs while trying to do something with the device whose driver
isn't working.

Here's the full Oops.  I was able to reproduce the issue with every
kernel I tried, from 5.10 to mainline.
