net: qualcomm: rmnet: Fix rcu splat in rmnet_is_real_dev_registered

Xiaolong reported a suspicious rcu_dereference_check in the device unregister notifier callback. Since we do not dereference the rx_handler_data, it's ok to just check for the value of the pointer. Note that this section is already protected by rtnl_lock.
