Subject: [PATCH 6/6] spmi: Add a check for remove callback when removing a SPMI driver

From: Jishnu Prakash <quic_jprakash@...cinc.com>

When removing a SPMI driver, there can be a crash due to NULL pointer
dereference if it does not have a remove callback defined. This is
one such call trace observed when removing the QCOM SPMI PMIC driver:

 el0_svc+0x38/0x9c
 el0_sync_handler+0x8c/0xf0
 el0_sync+0x1b4/0x1c0

If a driver has all its resources allocated through devm_() APIs and
does not need any other explicit cleanup, it would not require a
remove callback to be defined. Hence, add a check for remove callback
presence before calling it when removing a SPMI driver.
