[PATCH v2] mfd: mt6370: Add the out-of-bound check to prevent the null pointer

From: ChiYuan Huang <cy_huang at richtek.com>

This potential risk could happen at regmap_raw_read() or
regmap_raw_write() when accessing the over-bound register address.

For testing, I try to reproduce it with a testing attribute file.
Below's the issue trace log.

Dear reviewers:

In v2, I refined the patch title and commit message.

If there's still something improper, please kindly correct me.
