In case of error, the function devm_ioremap() returns NULL pointer not
ERR_PTR(). Fix by using devm_ioremap_resource instead of devm_ioremap.

v1 -> v2: use devm_ioremap_resource instead of devm_ioremap
Patch applied with Krzysztof's ACK.
Sadly this patch breaks support for IMEM pinctrl block on Exynos5433/TM2
and it took us some time to find the source of the problem.

devm_ioremap_resource() is not functionally a full equivalent of
devm_ioremap(). The problem here is that registers for IMEM and ALIVE
pin controllers are shared and both devices have <0x11090000 0x1000>
range in their reg property. devm_ioremap_resource() maps given
resource exclusively for the device, while devm_ioremap() allows
non-exclusive mappings.

This patch has to be reverted asap.

Best regards
