From: Thierry Reding <treding@xxxxxxxxxx> If the driver fails to obtain a DMA channel, it will initiate cleanup and try to release the DMA channel that couldn't be retrieved. This will cause a crash because the cleanup will try to dereference an ERR_PTR()- encoded error code. However, there's nothing to clean up at this point yet, so we can avoid this by simply propagating the error code.
