Commit 5253fe05bb47 ("phy: core: Add consumer device link support") added support for consumer device links, but it missed proper update for error handling in devm_of_phy_get(). Fix this by adding proper return statement. This patch fixes the following invalid pointer dereference on Exynos5250-based Arndale board with multi_v7_defconfig: 8<--- cut here --- Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address fffffe7f pgd = (ptrval) [fffffe7f] *pgd=6ffff841, *pte=00000000, *ppte=00000000 Internal error: Oops: 27 [#1] SMP ARM Modules linked in: CPU: 0 PID: 1 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 5.5.0-rc5-next-20200108 #167 Hardware name: Samsung Exynos (Flattened Device Tree) PC is at device_link_add+0x68/0x4c4 LR is at device_link_add+0x68/0x4c4 ...
