The rz_ssi_dma_request function only checks the NULL condition for the value returned by the dma_request_chan function, but this function can also return an error. If it happens, the subsequent function call to rz_ssi_dma_slave_config can lead to a kernel crash. This patch fixes the issue by checking both error and NULL condition returned by dma_request_chan.
