Subject: [PATCH] staging: kpc2000: kpc2000_spi: Check for null pointer after calling devm_ioremap

As the possible failure of the allocation, the devm_ioremap() may return
NULL pointer.
Then the kpspi->base is assigned to cs->base in kp_spi_setup() and used
in kp_spi_read_reg() and kp_spi_write_reg().
Therefore, it should be better to add the sanity check and return error
in order to avoid the dereference of the NULL pointer.

Fixes: 677b993a5749 ("staging: kpc2000: kpc_spi: use devm_* API to manage mapped I/O space")
