cfg80211: fix NULL pointer deference in reg_device_remove()
We won't ever get here as regulatory_hint_core() can only fail
on -ENOMEM and in that case we don't initialize cfg80211 but this is
technically correct code.
This is actually good for stable, where we don't check for -ENOMEM
failure on __regulatory_hint()'s failure.
