coresight: checking for NULL string in coresight_name_match()
[ Upstream commit fadf3a44e974b030e7145218ad1ab25e3ef91738 ] Connection child names associated to ports can sometimes be NULL, which is the case when booting a system on QEMU or when the Coresight power domain isn't switched on. This patch is adding a check to make sure a NULL string isn't fed to strcmp(), something that avoid crashing the system.
