Subject: [PATCH 4.14 091/107] gpio: exar: add a check for the return value of ida_simple_get fails

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

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

From: Kangjie Lu <kjlu@....edu>

commit 7ecced0934e574b528a1ba6c237731e682216a74 upstream.

ida_simple_get may fail and return a negative error number.
The fix checks its return value; if it fails, go to err_destroy.
