Subject: ASoC: tfa9879: Fix return value check in tfa9879_i2c_probe()

From: Wei Yongjun <yongjun_wei@trendmicro.com.cn>

commit 427ced4b203dfea4f08b1298cd1f88e19039fca4 upstream.

In case of error, the function devm_kzalloc() returns NULL
not ERR_PTR(). The IS_ERR() test in the return value check
should be replaced with NULL test.
