[PATCH 2/2] drm: fb: cma: Fail gracefully on allocation failure

[Thierry Reding]

The drm_gem_cma_create() function never returns NULL but rather an error
encoded in the return value using the ERR_PTR() macro. Callers therefore
need to check for errors using the IS_ERR() macro. This change allows
drivers to handle contiguous DMA allocation failures gracefully.
