Check fops_get() return value

Browse source 
Several subsystem open handlers dereference the fops_get() return value
without checking it for nullness.  This opens a race condition between the
open handler and module unloading.

A module can be marked as being unloaded (MODULE_STATE_GOING) before its
exit function is called and gets the chance to unregister the driver.
During that window open handlers can still be called, and fops_get() will
fail in try_module_get() and return a NULL pointer.

This change checks the fops_get() return value and returns -ENODEV if NULL.
