cpuidle: Check for dev before deregistering it.

If not, we could end up in the unfortunate situation where
we dereference a NULL pointer b/c we have cpuidle disabled.

This is the case when booting under Xen (which uses the
ACPI P/C states but disables the CPU idle driver) - and can
be easily reproduced when booting with cpuidle.off=1.

This problem also appears in 3.12 and could be a candidate for backport.
