Hi Vinod,


This has been reported by multiple users. e.g.

https://lore.kernel.org/dmaengine/CALYqZ9=pVRtSY=w4hG0R3HEM_Y=bpLba2_jRcvcZX4eLX5Yw-A@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/

https://lore.kernel.org/dmaengine/20240819193641.600176-1-harshit.m.mogalapalli@xxxxxxxxxx/

Could you help to merge this fix?


Thanks,

Lizhi

devm_regmap_init_mmio returns an ERR_PTR() upon error, not NULL.
Fix the error check and also fix the error message. Use the error code
from ERR_PTR() instead of the wrong value in ret.
