From: Markus Elfring <elfring@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 25 Dec 2023 20:03:56 +0100 The kfree() function was called in one case by the get_filename() function during error handling even if the passed variable contained a null pointer. This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software. Thus return directly after a call of the function “kzalloc” failed at the beginning.
