[PATCH] extcon: fix extcon_get_extcon_dev() error handling

[Dan Carpenter]

The extcon_get_extcon_dev() function returns error pointers on error
and NULL when it's a -EPROBE_DEFER defer situation.  There are eight
callers and only two of them handled this correctly.  In the other
callers an error pointer return would lead to a crash.

What prevents crashes is that errors can only happen in the case of
a bug in the caller or if CONFIG_EXTCON is disabled.  Six out of
eight callers use the Kconfig to either depend on or select
CONFIG_EXTCON.  Thus the real life impact of these bugs is tiny.

---
The two callers where the drivers can be built without CONFIG_EXTCON
are TYPEC_FUSB302 and CHARGER_MAX8997.

If we apply this patch, it might be a good idea to send it to -stable
so that backported code that relies on handling error pointers does
not break silently.
