It seems I already acked this patch, and I won't take that back.  I
will point out, though, that IS_ERR_OR_NULL has become a sort of
lightning rod and that its use is probably best avoided.

	http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2013-January/140543.html

This relates to the use of ERR_PTR with that particular pointer value;
I still think just using NULL is better, but maybe I'm missing
something.
