commit f72f4312d4388376fc8a1f6cf37cb21a0d41758b upstream.
Commit 028ddcac477b ("bcache: Remove unnecessary NULL point check in
node allocations") do the following change inside btree_gc_coalesce(),
31 @@ -1340,7 +1340,7 @@ static int btree_gc_coalesce(

At line 35 the original r[nodes].b is not always allocatored from
__bch_btree_node_alloc(), and possibly initialized as NULL pointer by
caller of btree_gc_coalesce(). Therefore the change at line 36 is not
correct.
This patch replaces the mistaken IS_ERR() by IS_ERR_OR_NULL() to avoid
potential issue.
