Nishanth Menon af6b10a13f net: ethernet: ti: netcp: Standardize knav_dma_open_channel to return NULL on error
[ Upstream commit 90a88306eb874fe4bbdd860e6c9787f5bbc588b5 ]

Make knav_dma_open_channel consistently return NULL on error instead
of ERR_PTR. Currently the header include/linux/soc/ti/knav_dma.h
returns NULL when the driver is disabled, but the driver
implementation does not even return NULL or ERR_PTR on failure,
causing inconsistency in the users. This results in a crash in
netcp_free_navigator_resources as followed (trimmed):

Unhandled fault: alignment exception (0x221) at 0xfffffff2
[fffffff2] *pgd=80000800207003, *pmd=82ffda003, *pte=00000000

[... TRIM...]

Standardize the error handling by making the function return NULL on
all error conditions. The API is used in just the netcp_core.c so the
impact is limited.

Note, this change, in effect reverts commit 5b6cb43b4d ("net:
ethernet: ti: netcp_core: return error while dma channel open issue"),
but provides a less error prone implementation.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
