[PATCH] s5p: fix error code path when failing to allocate DMA memory

In the s5p_mfc_alloc_firmware() function there are some mistakes
where the code checks whether the DMA memory is properly allocated or
not.

First of all dma_alloc_coherent() returns NULL in case of error.
The code also checked two times fw_virt_addr, ignoring
the bank2_virt pointer.
