But where the claim of 'null pointer' is coming from (or reading/writing
past the array for that matter)?

Replacing appleir_key_table with appleir->keymap is a noop anyway
because:
unsigned short keymap[ARRAY_SIZE(appleir_key_table)];

although one may argue is slightly nicer since it is used in memcpy line
earlier.
