Subject: [media] saa7164: fix return value check in saa7164_initdev()
Author:  Wei Yongjun <yongjun_...@trendmicro.com.cn>
Date:    Fri Oct 25 06:34:03 2013 -0300

In case of error, the function kthread_run() returns ERR_PTR()
and never returns NULL. The NULL test in the return value check
should be replaced with IS_ERR().
