Create the csdev_access struct only when a valid MMIO resource is
available. In tpdm_probe(), base is uninitialized for static TPDM
instances that lack an MMIO resource, causing csdev_access to be
created with a garbage address.
So far there has no register access for static instance, but this
change helps mitigate potential risks in the future.
