When starting failsafe with mac option, and giving it an invalid MAC. It
will cause a segmentation fault due to the hotplug_alarm installed on an
invalid subdev.

Only issue I have with this patch is that it should fix instead the commit

Fixes: ebea83f8 ("net/failsafe: add plug-in support")

Which introduced the alarm_install routine.
