parisc: led: Fix potential null-ptr-deref in start_task()
commit 41f563ab3c33698bdfc3403c7c2e6c94e73681e4 upstream.
start_task() calls create_singlethread_workqueue() and not checked the
ret value, which may return NULL. And a null-ptr-deref may happen:
start_task()
create_singlethread_workqueue() # failed, led_wq is NULL
queue_delayed_work()
queue_delayed_work_on()
__queue_delayed_work() # warning here, but continue
__queue_work() # access wq->flags, null-ptr-deref
Check the ret value and return -ENOMEM if it is NULL.
Fixes: 3499495205a6 ("[PARISC] Use work queue in LED/LCD driver instead of tasklet.")
