4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com>

commit 8128a31eaadbcdfa37774bbd28f3f00bac69996a upstream.

c2port_device_register() never returns NULL, it uses error pointers.

Fixes: 65131cd52b9e ("c2port: add c2port support for Eurotech Duramar 2150")
