Subject: [PATCH] ipaq-micro-keys: Add error handling for devm_kmemdup

Check the return value of i2c_add_adapter. Static analysis revealed that
the function did not properly handle potential failures of
i2c_add_adapter, which could lead to partial initialization of the I2C
adapter and unstable operation.

Although the error addressed by this patch may not occur in the current
environment, I still suggest implementing these error handling routines
if the function is not highly time-sensitive. As the environment evolves
or the code gets reused in different contexts, there's a possibility that
these errors might occur. In case you find this addition unnecessary, I
completely understand and respect your perspective. My intention was to
enhance the robustness of the code, but I acknowledge that practical
considerations and current functionality might not warrant this change
at this point.
