[PATCH] arm: kernel: add NULL pointer check in early_mem()

[Austin Kim]

The 'early_mem' function handles memory-related boot parameters.
If the parameter 'p' is passed as NULL, it could lead to an
uninitialized or invalid memory access during parsing.

This patch adds a NULL pointer check at the beginning of the
function to return early if no argument is provided, ensuring
system stability during the early boot process.
