Rafael J. Wysocki 696c7f8e03 ACPI / DMAR: Avoid passing NULL to acpi_put_table() ...

Linus reported that commit 174cc7187e "ACPICA: Tables: Back port
acpi_get_table_with_size() and early_acpi_os_unmap_memory() from
Linux kernel" added a new warning on his desktop system:

 ACPI Warning: Table ffffffff9fe6c0a0, Validation count is zero before decrement

which turns out to come from the acpi_put_table() in
detect_intel_iommu().

This happens if the DMAR table is not present in which case NULL is
passed to acpi_put_table() which doesn't check against that and
attempts to handle it regardless.

For this reason, check the pointer passed to acpi_put_table()
before invoking it.
