[PATCH][next] gve: fix -ENOMEM null check on a page allocation

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

 



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

Currently the check to see if a page is allocated is incorrect
and is checking if the pointer page is null, not *page as
intended.  Fix this.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Dereference before null check")
Fixes: f5cedc84a30d ("gve: Add transmit and receive support")
