A much better approach is:

        if (res) {
                void __iomem *csr = devm_ioremap_resources();
                if (IS_ERR(csr)) {
                        ret = ERR_PTR(csr);
                        dev_xxx();
                        goto err;
                }

                ctx->csr_mux = csr;
        }

Then you never end up in the situation where csr_mux contains an error
pointer value - and is much more obvious that is the case.
