[patch] video: fbdev: pxafb: potential NULL dereference on error

From: Dan Carpenter <hidden>

Also in: kernel-janitors, lkml
Subsystem: framebuffer layer, the rest · Maintainers: Helge Deller, Linus Torvalds

If we "goto out;" then it calls display_timings_release(timings);
Since "timings" is NULL, that's going to oops.  Just return directly.

Fixes: 420a488278e8 ('video: fbdev: pxafb: initial devicetree conversion')
