Commit 028ddcac477b ("bcache: Remove unnecessary NULL point check in node allocations") do the following change inside btree_gc_coalesce(),

At line 35 the original r[nodes].b is not always allocatored from __bch_btree_node_alloc(), and possibly initialized as NULL pointer by caller of btree_gc_coalesce(). Therefore the change at line 36 is not correct.
This patch replaces the mistaken IS_ERR() by IS_ERR_OR_NULL() to avoid potential issue.
