HID: intel-ish-hid: ipc: Fix dev_err usage with uninitialized dev->devc
[ Upstream commit 92826905ae340b7f2b25759a06c8c60bfc476b9f ]
The variable dev->devc in ish_dev_init was utilized by dev_err before it
was properly assigned. To rectify this, the assignment of dev->devc has
been moved to immediately follow memory allocation.
Without this change "(NULL device *)" is printed for device information.

Fixes: ae02e5d40d5f ("HID: intel-ish-hid: ipc layer")
