In the event that the RMI device is unreachable, the calls to rmi_set_mode() or rmi_set_page() will fail before registering the RMI transport device. When the device is removed, rmi_remove() will call rmi_unregister_transport_device() which will attempt to access the rmi_dev pointer which was not set. This patch adds a check of the RMI_STARTED bit before calling rmi_unregister_transport_device(). The RMI_STARTED bit is only set after rmi_register_transport_device() completes successfully. A subsequent patch in the RMI core will add checks to validate the pointers before accessing them.
