[Skiboot] [PATCH] hw/slw: Don't assert on a unknown chip

For some reason skiboot populates nodes in /cpus/ for the cores on
chips that are deconfigured. As a result Linux includes the threads
of those cores in it's set of possible CPUs in the system and attempts
to set the SPR values that should be used when waking a thread from
a deep sleep state.

However, in the case where we have deconfigured chip we don't create
a xscom node for that chip and as a result we don't have a proc_chip
structure for that chip either. In turn, this results in an assertion
failure when calling opal_slw_set_reg() since it expects the chip
structure to exist. Fix this up and print an error instead.
