During hot-remove, acpi_bus_hot_remove_device() calls ACPI _LCK
method when device->flags.lockable is set. However, this device
pointer is stale since the target acpi_device object has been
already kfree'd by acpi_bus_trim().

The flags.lockable indicates whether or not this ACPI object
implements _LCK method. Fix the stable pointer access by replacing
it with acpi_get_handle() to check if _LCK is implemented.
