    soc: bcm: Check for NULL return of devm_kzalloc()
    
    [ Upstream commit b4bd2aafacce48db26b0a213d849818d940556dd ]
    
    As the potential failure of allocation, devm_kzalloc() may return NULL.  Then
    the 'pd->pmb' and the follow lines of code may bring null pointer dereference.
    
    Therefore, it is better to check the return value of devm_kzalloc() to avoid
    this confusion.
