    HID: rmi: Check that the RMI_STARTED bit is set before unregistering the RMI transport device
    
    [ Upstream commit 8725aa4fa7ded30211ebd28bb1c9bae806eb3841 ]
    
    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.
