When a bare switches parameter is specified on the kernel command line
without the '=' separator, early parameter parsing passes NULL to
atari_switches_setup(), which then attempts to copy data from address
zero to the local switches buffer.
Reject a NULL argument in atari_switches_setup() by returning -EINVAL so
early parameter parsing reports the malformed option instead.
Fixes: d6713b4091a9 ("m68k: early parameter support")
