#1669403 — [PATCH 4.9 42/60] drivers/misc/c2port/c2port-duramar2150.c: checking for NULL instead of IS_ERR()

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.
