[PATCH] input: mtk-pmic-keys: Fix potential NULL pointer dereference in probe()

of_match_device() may return NULL when the device node
does not match any entry in the driver's match table.
The current code dereferences of_id->data unconditionally,
which can lead to a NULL pointer dereference.

Add a NULL check for the return value of of_match_device()
and return -ENODEV upon failure.
