rfkill: Fix incorrect check to avoid NULL pointer dereference

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1859640

[ Upstream commit 6fc232db ]

In rfkill_register, the struct rfkill pointer is first derefernced
and then checked for NULL. This patch removes the BUG_ON and returns
an error to the caller in case rfkill is NULL.
