chan->mipi takes the return value of tegra_mipi_request() which can be a
valid pointer or an error. However chan->mipi is checked in several places,
including error-cleanup code in tegra_csi_channels_cleanup(), as 'if
(chan->mipi)', which suggests the initial intent was that chan->mipi should
be either NULL or a valid pointer, never an error. As a consequence,
cleanup code in case of tegra_mipi_request() errors would dereference an
invalid pointer.
Fix by ensuring chan->mipi always contains either NULL or a void pointer.
Also add that to the documentation.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
