[PATCH] iio: addac: ad74115: Add missing check for device_property_read_u32_array

[Chen Ni]

Add check for the return value of device_property_read_u32_array() and
return the error if it fails in order to catch the error.

Thanks for the patch but this is intentional. Not a mandatory property. If you want, you could
do

if (ret && ret != -EINVAL)
	return dev_err_probe()

Not 100% sure if that is the proper error code but the goal is to only error out in case the
property __is__ present but wrong. However we are kind of relaxed with the above in IIO.

No need for further actions. NAK to the change. We don't want to have a monster
with the custom error checking.

P.S. The author also must answer if this was found by some static analyser
tool. If so, the stream from this "tool" should be blocked for now.
