From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> The pointer plane is always null on the error path at label 'fail' hence the check if it is non-null is redundant. We can therefore remove the check and the destruction of plane as well as the fail error path and instead just return an -ENOMEM ERR_PTR.
