Add NULL check for ACPI_COMPANION() in parse_wdg() to prevent NULL
pointer dereference when driver_override matches a device without
ACPI companion.
Same issue as CVE-2026-64227.
Fixes: 4186a47dbfbc ("platform/x86: wmi: Decouple probe deferring from wmi_block_list")

Hi,
we already perform this check in acpi_wmi_probe(), so doing this again is
not necessary.
Thanks,
