ASoC: dapm: Move error handling to snd_soc_dapm_new_control_unlocked
Currently DAPM has a lot of similar code to handle errors from snd_soc_dapm_new_control_unlocked, and much of this code does not really accurately reflect what the function returns. Firstly, most places will check for a return value of -EPROBE_DEFER and silence any error messages in that case. The one notable exception here being dapm_kcontrol_data_alloc which does currently print any error messages in the case of snd_soc_dapm_new_control_unlocked returning NULL or an error. Additionally the error prints being silenced in these case are redundant as snd_soc_dapm_new_control_unlocked can only return -EPROBE_DEFER or NULL when failing. Secondly, most places will treat a return value of NULL as an -ENOMEM. This is not correct either since any error except EPROBE_DEFER will cause a return value of NULL from snd_soc_dapm_new_control_unlocked. Centralise this handling and the error messages within snd_soc_dapm_new_control_unlocked and update the callers to simply check IS_ERR and return. Note that this update is slightly simpler in the case of dapm_kcontrol_data_alloc where that is fairly close to the handling that was already in place.
