Subject: [PATCH] mac802154: llsec: fix return value check in llsec_key_alloc()

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

In case of error, the functions crypto_alloc_aead() and crypto_alloc_blkcipher()
returns ERR_PTR() and never returns NULL. The NULL test in the return value check
should be replaced with IS_ERR().
