This patch puts a NULL check before branching to the address pointed
to by eeh_ops->notify_resume in eeh_report_resume(). The callback
is used to notify the arch EEH code that a pci device is back
online.
For PPC64 presently, only an implementation for pseries platform is
available and not for powernv. Hence without this patch EEH recovery
on all non-virtualized hosts is causing a kernel panic when
CONFIG_PCI_IOV is set. The panic is usually is of the form:
EEH: Notify device driver to resume
Unable to handle kernel paging request for instruction fetch
Faulting instruction address: 0x00000000
Oops: Kernel access of bad area, sig: 11 [#1]
