1. The devm_drm_dev_alloc() function returns error pointers.
Update the error handling to check for error pointers instead of NULL.
2. Currently panthor_vm_get_heap_pool() returns both ERR_PTR() and
NULL(when create is false and if there is no poool attached to the
VM)
- Change the function to return error pointers, when pool is
NULL return -ENOENT
- Also handle the callers to check for IS_ERR() on failure.

This is spotted by smatch and the patch is only compile tested

v1->v2: Fix the function panthor_vm_get_heap_pool() to only return error
pointers and handle the caller sites [Suggested by Boris Brezillon]
- Also merge these IS_ERR() vs NULL bugs into same patch

Sorry, that one deserves a separate patch.


Ah okay, I was confused about the same.
So I will send a V3 removing that part and could you please use the independent patch that I sent before ?
