From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
The current error handling on devm_kzalloc failures performs a non-null
check on connector. Thss check is redundant because connector is null
at that failure point. With this check removed, we may as well make
the failure path into a trivial -ENOMEM return to clean up the error
handling.
