[PATCH 5.19 039/101] mm: fix dereferencing possible ERR_PTR

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

From: Binyi Han <dantengknight@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 4eb5bbde3ccb710d3b85bfb13466612e56393369 upstream.

Smatch checker complains that 'secretmem_mnt' dereferencing possible
ERR_PTR().  Let the function return if 'secretmem_mnt' is ERR_PTR, to
avoid deferencing it.
