From: Pan Bian <bianpan2016@xxxxxxx> Function create_singlethread_workqueue() will return a NULL pointer if there is no enough memory, and its return value should be validated before using. However, in function rndis_wlan_bind(), its return value is not checked. This may cause NULL dereference bugs. This patch fixes it.
