[PATCH] backlight: qcom-wled: Add NULL check in the wled_configure

When devm_kasprintf() fails, it returns a NULL pointer. However, this return value is not properly checked in the function wled_configure.
A NULL check should be added after the devm_kasprintf call to prevent potential NULL pointer dereference error.
Fixes: f86b77583d88c ("backlight: pm8941: Convert to using %pOFn instead of device_node.name")
