Subject: [PATCH] media: rockchip: rga: Fix possible ERR_PTR dereference in
 rga_buf_init()

rga_get_frame() can return ERR_PTR(-EINVAL) when buffer type is
unsupported or invalid. rga_buf_init() does not check the return value
and unconditionally dereferences the pointer when accessing f->size.

Add proper ERR_PTR checking and return the error to prevent
dereferencing an invalid pointer.
