BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in __regmap_init drivers/base/regmap/regmap.c:841 Read of size 1 at addr ffff88803678cdf1 by task xrun/9137

CPU: 0 PID: 9137 Comm: xrun Tainted: G W 5.18.0-rc2 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.13.0-1ubuntu1.1 04/01/2014 Call Trace:

This happend when da9121 device is probe by da9121_i2c_id, but with invalid dts. Thus, chip->subvariant_id is set to -EINVAL, and later da9121_assign_chip_model() will access 'regmap' without init it.

Fix it by return -EINVAL from da9121_assign_chip_model() if 'chip->subvariant_id' is invalid.
