In case devm_kzalloc fails, the patch returns -ENOMEM to avoid
potential NULL pointer dereference.

add checks in rt5663_parse_dp  as well.

Thanks.

Hi Kangjje/Aditya,

Please do take care of the return value you are sending upstream whether 
still is checked or not
otherwise NULL pointer dereference will still come.
Also resource release properly otherwise your patch may looks simple but 
it can introduce memory leak as well in other path.


Thanks,
Mukesh
