The label “error” was used to jump to another pointer check despite of
the detail in the implementation of the function “atmel_spi_configure_dma”
that it was determined already that the corresponding variable
contained an error pointer because of a failed call of
the function “dma_request_chan”.

* Thus use more appropriate labels instead.

* Delete two redundant checks.


This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.

Fixes: 398b6b310ec85eef9d98df5963d5ded18aa92ad8 ("spi: atmel: switch to use modern name")
Signed-off-by: Markus Elfring <elfring@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

It's becoming a pattern, but still:
NACK.

Regards,
Nicolas
