From: Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: lib: fix test_hmm.c reference after free Coccinelle scripts report the following errors: lib/test_hmm.c:523:20-26: ERROR: reference preceded by free on line 521 lib/test_hmm.c:524:21-27: ERROR: reference preceded by free on line 521 lib/test_hmm.c:523:28-35: ERROR: devmem is NULL but dereferenced. lib/test_hmm.c:524:29-36: ERROR: devmem is NULL but dereferenced. Fix these by using the local variable 'res' instead of devmem.
