tty: atmel_serial: fix a potential NULL pointer dereference
commit c85be041065c0be8bc48eda4c45e0319caf1d0e5 upstream. In case dmaengine_prep_dma_cyclic fails, the fix returns a proper error code to avoid NULL pointer dereference. Signed-off-by: Kangjie Lu <kjlu@umn.edu> Fixes: 34df42f59a60 ("serial: at91: add rx dma support") Acked-by: Richard Genoud <richard.genoud@gmail.com> Cc: stable <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
