[PATCH v2] backlight: pm8941: Add NULL check in wled_configure()

devm_kasprintf() return NULL if memory allocation fails. Currently,
wled_configure() does not check for this case, leading to a possible NULL
pointer dereference.
Add NULL check after devm_kasprintf() to prevent this issue.
Fixes: f86b77583d88 ("backlight: pm8941: Convert to using %pOFn instead of device_node.name")
