We will hit NULL pointer dereference if we call
platform_device_register_simple or platform_device_add at very early
stage. I have observed following crash when called platform_device_add
from "init_irq" hook of machine_desc. This patch fixes this issue and
let system handle this case gracefully instead of kernel panic.
