[PATCH 1/2] nfc: st21nfca: Check for devm_kzalloc() failure

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

 



From: Fabio Estevam <fabio.estevam@xxxxxxx>

devm_kzalloc() may fail, so we should better check for error and
propagate the error in the case of allocation failure.

This avoids a potential NULL pointer dereference later on.
