The extcon_get_extcon_dev() function returns error pointers on error
and NULL when it's a -EPROBE_DEFER defer situation. There are eight
callers and only two of them handled this correctly. In the other
callers an error pointer return would lead to a crash.
What prevents crashes is that errors can only happen in the case of
a bug in the caller or if CONFIG_EXTCON is disabled. Six out of
eight callers use the Kconfig to either depend on or select
CONFIG_EXTCON. Thus the real life impact of these bugs is tiny.

The two callers where the drivers can be built without CONFIG_EXTCON
are TYPEC_FUSB302 and CHARGER_MAX8997.
If we apply this patch, it might be a good idea to send it to -stable
so that backported code that relies on handling error pointers does
not break silently.
