[PATCH] platform/x86: x86-android-tablets: Fix an IS_ERR() vs NULL check in probe

[Dan Carpenter]

The spi_new_device() function returns NULL on error, it doesn't return
error pointers.

Fixes: 70505ea6de24 ("platform/x86: x86-android-tablets: Add support for SPI device instantiation")

Thank you for your patch, I've applied this patch to my review-hans 
branch:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pdx86/platform-drivers-x86.git/log/?h=review-hans

Note it will show up in my review-hans branch once I've pushed my
local branch there, which might take a while.

Once I've run some tests on this branch the patches there will be
added to the platform-drivers-x86/for-next branch and eventually
will be included in the pdx86 pull-request to Linus for the next
merge-window.

Regards,

Hans
