Currently when the RC Core is enabled (reachable) core code located
in cec_register_adapter() attempts to populate the RC structure with
a pointer to the 'parent' passed in by the caller.

Unfortunately if the caller did not specify RC capibility when calling
cec_allocate_adapter(), then there will be no RC structure to populate.

This causes a "NULL pointer dereference" error.

Fixes: f51e80804f0 ("[media] cec: pass parent device in register(), not allocate()")

Oops! Thanks for the report. I'll take this for 4.12.

Since this is a -fix, it should really go in for v4.11.
