Subject: video: fbdev: pxafb: potential NULL dereference on error

From: Dan Carpenter <[email protected]>

commit e0299908d606a99e7ffb467bc3c11dfe54133af3 upstream.

If we "goto out;" then it calls display_timings_release(timings); Since "timings" is NULL, that's going to oops. Just return directly.
