In case of error, the function devm_regmap_init_i2c() returns ERR_PTR()
and never returns NULL. The NULL test in the return value check
should be replaced with IS_ERR().

Interestingly, the change does not correspond to the changelog
message. And the code is correct as devm_kzalloc returns NULL if I
remember correctly.
My bad, I sent a wong patch, I will send a new one.

Thanks,
Yang
Thanks for pointing that out - I missed that. I would like to retract my
Acked-by for this patch.
