[PATCH] MIPS: ath25: check for kzalloc allocation failure

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

 



From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Currently there is no null check on a failed allocation of board_data,
and hence a null pointer dereference will occurr.  Fix this by checking
for the out of memory null pointer.

Fixes: a7473717483e ("MIPS: ath25: add board configuration detection")
