[PATCH] mux: core: fix error handling in devm_mux_chip_alloc

From: Peter Rosin
Date: Tue Mar 14 2017 - 12:49:22 EST


The error handling is mixed up. mux_chip_alloc() doesn't return an error
pointer (just NULL on failure), so check for NULL instead of using IS_ERR.
devm_mux_chip_alloc is documented to return NULL on failure, so fix that
as well.

All users of devm_mux_chip_alloc() are coded according to documentation.

Fixes: a11c524a6b90 ("mux: minimal mux subsystem and gpio-based mux controller")
