Subject: [PATCH next] media: i2c: fix error handling in ub960_rxport_add_serializer()

Smatch warns:
 drivers/media/i2c/ds90ub960.c:1671 ub960_rxport_add_serializer():
 err: 'rxport->ser.client' dereferencing possible ERR_PTR()

i2c_new_client_device() returns error pointers on failure and in
dev_dbg statement we are dereferencing error pointer which is a bug.

Fix this by using IS_ERR() which checks for error pointers.

Fixes: afe267f2d368 ("media: i2c: add DS90UB960 driver")

Found with static analysis, only compile tested. Although in
drivers/media i2c_client_has_driver() checks are present, IS_ERR() would
probably be sufficient here.
