Subject: [PATCH] putname(): IS_ERR_OR_NULL() is wrong here
Git-commit: ea47ab111669b187808b3080602788dec26cb9bc
Patch-mainline: v5.15-rc1
References: bsc#1205205

Mixing NULL and ERR_PTR() just in case is a Bad Idea(tm).  For
struct filename the former is wrong - failures are reported
as ERR_PTR(...), not as NULL.
