Subject: [PATCH] bcache: Remove some unnecessary NULL point check for the return value of __bch_btree_node_alloc-related pointer

Due to the previously fix of __bch_btree_node_alloc, the return value will
never be a NULL pointer. So IS_ERR is enough to handle the failure
 situation. Fix it by replacing IS_ERR_OR_NULL check to IS_ERR check.

Fixes: cafe56359144 ("bcache: A block layer cache")
