This is a single patch submission that addresses an error handling bug in the host1x IOMMU attachment code. The patch fixes a violation of the ERR_PTR/IS_ERR contract where ERR_PTR(0) could be returned, which evaluates to NULL and breaks the error handling convention in kernel code.
**Series Assessment:**
- **Scope**: Appropriately focused on a single bug fix
- **Target**: Correctly marked for stable backport (Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org)
- **Static Analysis Finding**: Identified by Smatch, which is a legitimate source for such bugs
- **Fix Quality**: The fix needs careful examination of the broader error handling semantics
**Key Concerns:**
1. The fix changes error handling semantics in a subtle way that requires validation
2. Need to verify all callers handle both NULL and ERR_PTR return values correctly
3. The original code path's intention when setting err=0 needs clarification
