Subject: [PATCH 4.4 44/91] leds: leds-gpio: Fix return value check in create_gpio_led()

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

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

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

commit 2d88a331e48095cf60ad9bdf3177bd401bf99727 upstream.

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