Subject: atmel-ssc: fix misuse of dev_dbg when requested ssc instance is not found
From: Hans-Christian Egtvedt <hans-christian.egtvedt@xxxxxxxxx>

The ssc pointer is not valid when the id is not found in the list. 
Convert the message from a debug one into an error message and avoid
dereferencing the bad pointer.
