This patch fixes an issue that the following commit causes NULL
pointer dereference in dma_release_channel().
 "usb: renesas_usbhs: add support for requesting DT DMA"
 (commit id abd2dbf6bb1b5f3a03a8c76b1a8879da1dd30caa)

The usbhsf_dma_init_dt() should set fifo->{t,r}x_chan to NULL if
dma_request_slave_channel_reason() returns IS_ERR value.
Otherwise, usbhsf_dma_quit() will call dma_release_channel(), and then
NULL pointer dereference happens.

Thanks for your patch!

I guess it also causes other problems?
The return value of usbhsf_dma_chan_get() is not checked for an error
code in many callsites.

My first thought was: shouldn't it be handled in usbhsf_dma_init() instead,
so it applies to both the legacy platform data and the DT case?

But apparently dma_request_channel() returns NULL on failure, while
dma_request_slave_channel_reason() returns an error code. Oh well...

Remapping the error to NULL does mean the driver doesn't handle
-EPROBE_DEFER, but that's tricky with DMA engines anyway, cfr. commit
55f5f9862a31e2ac ("i2c: sh_mobile: rework deferred probing")

Gr{oetje,eeting}s,

I have tested this on the lager and koelsch boards using
shmobile_defconfig and next-20150129 as a base. The environment
where I originally observed the problem.

Yes, you are correct. So, I also should have tested this patch on PIO environment.

Thank you! This patch was already merged in Felipe's repository.
