Subject: [PATCH v2] drivers/misc: Add NULL check in aspeed_lpc_enable_snoop

devm_kasprintf() returns NULL if memory allocation fails. Currently,
aspeed_lpc_enable_snoop() does not check for this case, leading to a NULL
pointer dereference.

Add NULL check after devm_kasprintf() to prevent this issue.

Fixes: 3772e5da4454 ("drivers/misc: Aspeed LPC snoop output using misc chardev")
