The devm_gpiod_get_optional() function may return an ERR_PTR in case of
genuine GPIO acquisition errors, not just NULL which indicates the
legitimate absence of an optional GPIO.
Add an IS_ERR() check after the call in sky81452_bl_parse_dt(). On
error, return the error code to ensure proper failure handling rather
than proceeding with invalid pointers.

Changes in v2:
- Use dev_err_cast_probe() to make the code more concise.
