[PATCH] [power/reset] at91-sama5d2: Add error handling in at91_shdwc_probe

[Haoran Liu]

This patch adds error handling to the at91_shdwc_probe function
in drivers/power/reset/at91-sama5d2_shdwc.c. The function
previously did not handle the case where of_match_node could fail,
potentially leading to unexpected behavior if the device tree match
was unsuccessful.

As the platforms are DT only and that this driver was instantiated 
precisely because a "match" existed, I don't think this error handling 
is needed because it cannot happen.

You didn't say how you reached this "unexpected behavior": is it a real 
case (I'm interested in the boot log then) or found running a static 
analysis tool?

For now, it's a NACK, sorry. Best regards,
   Nicolas

Can you elaborate how this will ever happen?
