Subject: [PATCH 171/217] libcxl: fix a segfault when memdev->pmem is absent
A CXL memdev may not have any persistent capacity, and in this case it
is possible that a 'pmem' object never gets instantiated. Such a
scenario would cause free_pmem () to dereference a NULL pointer and
segfault.
Fix this by only proceeding in free_pmem() if 'pmem' was valid.
