intel_idle: Check cpu_idle_get_driver() for NULL before dereferencing it.

commit 3735d524da64b70b41c764359da36f88aded3610 upstream.

If the machine is booted without any cpu_idle driver set
(b/c disable_cpuidle() has been called) we should follow
other users of cpu_idle API and check the return value
for NULL before using it.
