From: Markus Elfring <elfring@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 26 Jul 2016 14:10:55 +0200 The kfree() function was called in up to three cases by the class_register_type() function during error handling even if the passed data structure element contained a null pointer. * Split a condition check for memory allocation failures. * Improve this implementation detail by the introduction of a few jump labels.
