drivers/ide-cd: Handle missing driver data during status check gracefully
The 0day bot reports the below failure which happens occasionally, with their randconfig testing (once every ~100 boots). The Code points at the private pointer ->driver_data being NULL, which hints at a race of sorts where the private driver_data descriptor has disappeared by the time we get to run the workqueue. So let's check that pointer before we continue with issuing the command to the drive. This fix is of the brown paper bag nature but considering that IDE is long deprecated, let's do that so that random testing which happens to enable CONFIG_IDE during randconfig builds, doesn't fail because of this. Besides, failing the TEST_UNIT_READY command because the drive private data is gone is something which we could simply do anyway, to denote that there was a problem communicating with the device.
