Subject: cell: fix cbe_thermal for legacy SLOF tree.
From: Jean-Christophe DUBOIS <jcd@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Previous patch changed based on Christian Krafft's comment.

On some legacy SLOF tree the generic code is unable to ioremap some Cell BE
registers.  Therefore the "generic" functions are returning a NULL pointer,
triggering a crash on such platforms.

Let's handle this more gracefully.
