Re: [V1] mtd: devices: docg3:- Handle return value of devm_ioremap.

[arvind Yadav]

Yes, We are returning -ENOMEM, ret is initialized to -ENOMEM.
As per your concern, I have added dev_err failure message.

Thanks

Here, If devm_ioremap will fail. It will return NULL.
Kernel can run into a NULL-pointer dereference.

I think return -ENOMEM right away won't hurt here. Also, dev_err()
explaining the failure would be nice to add.

Thanks!

        cascade = devm_kzalloc(dev, sizeof(*cascade) * DOC_MAX_NBFLOORS,
