4.5-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Vladimir Zapolskiy <vz at mleia.com>

commit edf8fcdc6b254236be005851af35ea5e826e7e09 upstream.

The of_io_request_and_map() returns a valid pointer in iomem region or
ERR_PTR(), check for NULL always fails and may cause a NULL pointer
dereference on error path.

Fixes: 25e34b44313b ("irqchip/mxs: Prepare driver for hardware with different offsets")
