[PATCH v4 1/7] cxl/region: Avoid null pointer dereference in is_cxl_region()

[Smita Koralahalli <Smita.KoralahalliChannabasappa@xxxxxxx>]

Add a NULL check in is_cxl_region() to prevent potential null pointer
dereference if a caller passes a NULL device. This change ensures the
function safely returns false instead of triggering undefined behavior
when dev is NULL.
