From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> The memory allocation failure checking for in and out is currently checking if the pointers are valid rather than the contents of what they point to. Hence the null check on failed memory allocations is incorrect. Fix this by adding the missing indirection in the check. Also for the default case, just set the *in and *out to null as these don't have any thing allocated to kfree. Finally remove the redundant *in and *out check as these have been already done on each allocation in the case statement.
