If we hit this error path we end up returning ERR_PTR(0) which is NULL.
The caller is not expecting that so it results in a NULL dereference.

The check to see of err is set and the subsequent goto is extraneous
as the next statement is where the goto is jumping to. Remove this
redundant check and goto.

The mlxfw module is in charge of common logic needed to flash Mellanox
devices firmware, which consists of:
- Parse the Mellanox Firmware Archive version 2 (MFA2) format, which is
the format used to store the Mellanox firmware. The MFA2 format file can
hold firmware for many different silicon variants, differentiated by a
unique ID called PSID. In addition, the MFA2 file data section is
compressed using xz compression to save both file-system space and
memory at extraction time.
- Implement the firmware flash state machine logic, which is a common
logic for Mellanox products needed to flash the firmware to the device.
As the module is shared between different Mellanox products, it defines a
set of callbacks to be implemented by the specific driver for hardware
interaction.
