4.5-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Vladimir Zapolskiy <[email protected]> commit ccbc2a9e7878ff09bcaed4893c2a2d3adbb797e2 upstream. On error platform_device_register_simple() returns ERR_PTR() value, check for NULL always fails. The change corrects the check itself and propagates the returned error upwards.
