So, fix that by adding checks before use the callback.

Greg,
This patch does not contain the "commit <sha> upstream" snippet since you
already removed the timesync code from the -next tree. So, It would never get
there. However this will affect the greybus users of 4.9.x.
This code is still in Linus tree and 4.10-rc so this is just a normal
fix even if this is no longer an issue in -next.
Yeah, but this code is not in staging-next anymore, It was mainly an
headsup for that, this patch will not apply to that tree.

I'd use the same pattern here:
if (!arche_platform_change_state_cb)
return;
arche_platform_change_state_cb(ARCHE_PLATFORM_STATE_ACTIVE, NULL);
I also notice I forgot the Fixes: tag, so I will add your suggestion
to my v2.
Thanks Johan,
Cheers,
Rui
