The function ioremap() in gamecube_rtc_read_offset_from_sram() can fail
and return NULL, which is dereferenced without checking, leading to a
NULL pointer dereference.
Add a check for the return value of ioremap() and return -ENOMEM on
failure.

Good catch!

The error messages on lines 240 and 276 start with a lowercase letter,
please use the same case for this message. From a quick grep through
the kernel, it seems we use either lowercase or uppercase, but I’d
prefer to keep the case consistent in this driver at least.
