Thanks, it's cleaner that way:

    drm/omap: return error if dma_alloc_writecombine fails
    
    On a platform with no TILER (e.g. omap3, am43xx), when the user wants to
    allocate buffer with flag OMAP_BO_SCANOUT, the buffer needs to be
    allocated with dma_alloc_writecombine. For some reason the driver does
    not return an error if that alloc fails, instead it continues without
    backing memory. This leads to errors later when the user tries to use
    the buffer.
    
    This patch makes the driver return an error if dma_alloc_writecombine
    fails.
