[patch] wimax: wimax_msg_alloc() returns ERR_PTR not null

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



wimax_msg_alloc() returns an ERR_PTR and not null.  I changed it to test
for ERR_PTR instead of null.  I also added a check in front of the
kfree() because kfree() can handle null but not ERR_PTR.
