After confirming that isp->psys is an error pointer goto is called and
imminently goes to this code snippet below:

out_ipu6_bus_del_devices:
	if (isp->psys) {
		ipu6_cpd_free_pkg_dir(isp->psys);
		ipu6_buttress_unmap_fw_image(isp->psys, &isp->psys->fw_sgt);
	}

Since isp->psys is confirmed to be an error pointer not NULL, the
condition is true and the error pointer is dereferenced. So isp->psys
should be set to NULL before going to out_ipu6_bus_del_devices.

Hi Ethan,

Thanks for the patch.

There are a number of checks for IS_ERR_OR_NULL() in error handling;
instead of setting psys to NULL here I'd add the same test to the condition
after out_ipu6_bus_del_devices:.
