spi: spidev: fix possible NULL dereference
During the last close we are freeing spidev if spidev->spi is NULL, but
just before checking if spidev->spi is NULL we are dereferencing it.
Lets add a check there to avoid the NULL dereference.

Fixes: 9169051617df ("spi: spidev: Don't mangle max_speed_hz in underlying spi device")
