[PATCH] media: i2c: tda1997x: prevent potential NULL pointer access

[Wolfram Sang]

i2c_new_dummy() can fail returning a NULL pointer. This is not checked
and the returned pointer is blindly used. Convert to
devm_i2c_new_dummy_client() which returns an ERR_PTR and also add a
validity check. Using devm_* here also fixes a leak because the dummy
client was not released in the probe error path.

I didn't add a stable tag becase devm_i2c_new_dummy_device() is new in
the kernel. So, a backport would need to add a check for the old API.

I used devm_ here because the driver uses it already in other places,
too (despite media not favoring devm?).
