drm: fb: cma: Fail gracefully on allocation failure
The drm_gem_cma_create() function never returns NULL but rather an error encoded in the return value using the ERR_PTR() macro. Callers therefore need to check for errors using the IS_ERR() macro. This change allows drivers to handle contiguous DMA allocation failures gracefully.
