This really should not be necessary.

Is the a fix for an actual issue or just good-to-have thing? In the
former case it lacks a description of how the issue can be triggered and
a Fixes tag.

This fixes a segfault that occurs when the new Thunderbolt driver is
used because it calls `typec_altmode_notify` with null data. I'm not
sure if that needs a `Fixes` since what's currently running upstream
doesn't actually trigger this error.

I'll update the description with why this is needed. i.e.
---
Make sure the data pointer in typec_mux_state is not null before
accessing it. The new Thunderbolt driver calls typec_altmode_notify
with a NULL pointer for data which can cause this mux configuration
to crash.
