'drm_dev_alloc()' returns an error pointer in case of error, not NULL
So test it with IS_ERR.
This behavior has been introduced recently in 0f2886057be3. For some
reason, this file has not been updated.
Fixes: 0f2886057be3 ("drm: Don't swallow error codes in drm_dev_alloc()")

Thank you for the patch. The same fix is in the queue already:
8cca354816ad ("drm/imx: drm_dev_alloc() returns error pointers"). Only
Dan selected commit 54db5decce17 ("drm/imx: drop deprecated load/unload
drm_driver ops") as the culprit.
regards
Philipp
