The drm_format_info() function returns NULL if the format is
unsupported, but the simplefb_get_validated_format() is expected to
return error pointers.  If we propagate teh NULL return then it will
lead to a NULL dereference in the callers.  Swap the NULL and trade it
in for an ERR_PTR(-EINVAL).

Fixes: 11e8f5fd223b ("drm: Add simpledrm driver")

Thank you. I've added the patch to drm-misc-next.

Best regards
