Yes the check is to make sure there's a pointer to store the value into.
I get that. The users are all internal to this driver though because
the function is static. If the function returned an error because it
couldn't find something then we wouldn't have to test the resulting
pointers for success, instead we could check for a return value.
Similarly, it may be clearer to have a single get for each item and then
return a pointer from the function vs. passing it in to extract
something. It may duplicate some code but otherwise the code would be
clearer because we're getting one thing and can pass an error value
through the pointer with PTR_ERR().
