[PATCH V2 2/3] soc: ti: knav_dma: Make knav_dma_open_channel return NULL on error

[Nishanth Menon <nm@ti.com>]

Make knav_dma_open_channel consistently return NULL on error instead of
ERR_PTR. Currently the header include/linux/soc/ti/knav_dma.h returns NUL
when the driver is disabled, but the driver implementation returns
ERR_PTR(-EINVAL), creating API inconsistency for users.

Standardize the error handling by making the function return NULL on all
error conditions.
