Currently when the call to dev_get_platdata returns null the driver issues
a warning and then later dereferences the null pointer. Avoid this issue
by returning -EPROBE_DEFER errror rather when the platform data is null.
Addresses-Coverity: ("Dereference after null check")
Fixes: 211010aeb097 ("dmaengine: ti: omap-dma: Pass sdma auxdata to driver and use it")

I think we should make the print as dev_err("&pdev->dev,
"omap_system_dma_plat_info is missing") and return with -ENODEV. The
omap_system_dma_plat_info is _needed_ and if we have booted with device
tree it is not going to appear later.
Tony, what do you think?

Yes makes sense, the auxdata is needed for the quirks for now.
Eventually the quirks can be set directly in the dmaengine driver
based on compatible and soc_device_match().
