pinctrl: core: make sure strcmp() doesn't get a null parameter
Some drivers, for example, QCOM's qdf2xxx, set groups[gpio].name only
when gpio is valid, and leave invalid gpio names as null.
If we want to access the sys node "pinconf-groups",
pinctrl_get_group_selector() -> get_group_name() may return a null
pointer if group_selector is invalid, then the below Kernel panic
would happen since strcmp() uses this null pointer to do comparison.
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at ss 00000000
