In the original code we dereferenced "pm8001_dev" before checking if it
was null. This patch moves the dereference inside the condition.
This was found by a static checker (smatch). I looked, but I couldn't
tell if "pm8001_dev" dev was ever actually null. The approach in this
patch seemed like the safest response.
