[bug report] power: supply_core: Pass pointer to battery info

[Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com>]

Hello Linus Walleij,

The patch 25fd330370ac: "power: supply_core: Pass pointer to battery
info" from Dec 15, 2021, leads to the following Smatch static checker
warning:

	drivers/power/supply/bq256xx_charger.c:1529 bq256xx_hw_init()
	error: potentially dereferencing uninitialized 'bat_info'.

    1525         ret = power_supply_get_battery_info(bq->charger, &bat_info);

If the first allocation in power_supply_get_battery_info() fails then
bat_info is uninitialized.  (It's not really possible unless you do
failure injection).
