Fix a MIPS `dma_alloc_coherent' regression from commitbc3ec75de5("dma-mapping: merge direct and noncoherent ops") that causes a cached allocation to be returned on noncoherent cache systems. This is due to an inverted check now used in the MIPS implementation of `arch_dma_alloc' on the result from `dma_direct_alloc_pages' before doing the cached-to-uncached mapping of the allocation address obtained. The mapping has to be done for a non-NULL rather than NULL result, because a NULL result means the allocation has failed. Invert the check for correct operation then. Signed-off-by: Maciej W.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
