The devm_kzalloc() function returns NULL on failure, not error pointers.
Also printing an error message for kmalloc() failures is against kernel
style so just return -ENOMEM without printing a message. (Kmalloc
already prints a message).
Fixes: 4b35f0f41ee2 ("drm/st7571-i2c: add support for Sitronix ST7571 LCD controller")
