    iommu: Return right value in iommu_sva_bind_device()
    
    [ Upstream commit 89e8a2366e3bce584b6c01549d5019c5cda1205e ]
    
    iommu_sva_bind_device() should return either a sva bond handle or an
    ERR_PTR value in error cases. Existing drivers (idxd and uacce) only
    check the return value with IS_ERR(). This could potentially lead to
    a kernel NULL pointer dereference issue if the function returns NULL
    instead of an error pointer.
    
    In reality, this doesn't cause any problems because iommu_sva_bind_device()
    only returns NULL when the kernel is not configured with CONFIG_IOMMU_SVA.
    In this case, iommu_dev_enable_feature(dev, IOMMU_DEV_FEAT_SVA) will
    return an error, and the device drivers won't call iommu_sva_bind_device()
    at all.
