None of the current lookup_power_well() callers are actually checking for NULL return values, they all just use the pointer right away. Replacing these theoretical segfaults with BUG()s at least makes our code a little more explicit to the reader. We can only hit this NULL/BUG() condition if we try to lookup a power well that isn't defined on a given platform. If that ever happens, we have to fix our code, making it lookup the correct power well. Because of this, I don't think it's worth trying to implement error checking in every caller. Improving our CI system will be a better use of our time once a bug is found in the wild.
