Commit Message

  The kzalloc() in i2c_quirk() will return null if the physical
memory has run out. As a result, if we dereference the new_compat
pointer, the null pointer dereference bug will happen.

This patch adds a check to avoid null pointer dereference.

Fixes: 5fd62066d290 ("ARM: mvebu: Add thermal quirk for the Armada 375 DB board")
