Subject: [PATCH 3/3] phy: qcom-qmp-usbc: fix NULL pointer dereference in PM
 callbacks

From: Poovendhan Selvaraj <quic_poovendh@...cinc.com>

The pm ops are enabled before qmp phy create which causes
a NULL pointer dereference when accessing qmp->phy->init_count
in the qmp_usb_runtime_suspend.

So if qmp->phy is NULL, bail out early in suspend / resume callbacks
to avoid the NULL pointer dereference in qmp_usb_runtime_suspend and
qmp_usb_runtime_resume.

Cc: stable@...r.kernel.org # v6.9
Fixes: 19281571a4d5 ("phy: qcom: qmp-usb: split USB-C PHY driver")
