Subject: [PATCH 5.15 423/667] soc: bcm: Check for NULL return of devm_kzalloc()

From: QintaoShen <unSimple1993@....com>

[ Upstream commit b4bd2aafacce48db26b0a213d849818d940556dd ]

As the potential failure of allocation, devm_kzalloc() may return NULL.  Then
the 'pd->pmb' and the follow lines of code may bring null pointer dereference.

Therefore, it is better to check the return value of devm_kzalloc() to avoid
this confusion.

Fixes: 8bcac4011ebe ("soc: bcm: add PM driver for Broadcom's PMB")
