Subject[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.9 46/64] nvmem: core: return error code instead of NULL from nvmem_device_get
Date
From: Srinivas Kandagatla <srinivas.kandagatla@linaro.org>

[ Upstream commit ca6ac25cecf0e740d7cc8e03e0ebbf8acbeca3df ]

nvmem_device_get() should return ERR_PTR() on error or valid pointer
on success, but one of the code path seems to return NULL, so fix it.
