[PATCH 5.13 300/800] media: au0828: fix a NULL vs IS_ERR() check

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
Date: 2021-07-12 08:29:21
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: media input infrastructure (v4l/dvb), the rest · Maintainers: Mauro Carvalho Chehab, Linus Torvalds

From: Dan Carpenter <redacted>

[ Upstream commit 8f2e452730d2bcd59fe05246f0e19a4c52e0012d ]

The media_device_usb_allocate() function returns error pointers when
it's enabled and something goes wrong.  It can return NULL as well, but
only if CONFIG_MEDIA_CONTROLLER is disabled so that doesn't apply here.

Fixes: 812658d88d26 ("media: change au0828 to use Media Device Allocator API")
