Input: cros_ec_keyb - fix an invalid memory access    If
cros_ec_keyb_register_matrix() isn't called (due to
`buttons_switches_only`) in cros_ec_keyb_probe(), `ckdev->idev`
remains  NULL.  An invalid memory access is observed in
cros_ec_keyb_process()  when receiving an EC_MKBP_EVENT_KEY_MATRIX
event in cros_ec_keyb_work()  in such case.      Unable to handle
kernel read from unreadable memory at virtual address 0000000000000028

cros_ec_keyb_work    blocking_notifier_call_chain    ec_irq_thread
It's still unknown about why the kernel receives such malformed event,
in any cases, the kernel shouldn't access `ckdev->idev` and friends if
the driver doesn't intend to initialize them.

This plugin only works with Tenable.ot.
