[greybus-dev] Re: [PATCH] staging: greybus: fix coccinelle false positive on potential NULL dereference

In gb_bootrom_get_firmware(), when fw is NULL, ret is already set to ERRNO before jumping to the queue_work label, so !ret is always false and fw->size is never dereferenced. Add an explicit NULL check to silence a coccinelle false positive warning.

Why not fix the coccinelle tool/script instead?
