RISC-V: Avoid dereferening NULL regs in die()
I don't think we can actually die() without a regs pointer, but the compiler was warning about a NULL check after a dereference. It seems prudent to just avoid the possibly-NULL dereference, given that when die()ing the system is already toast so who knows how we got there.
