3.16.47-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Pan Bian <bianpan2016@xxxxxxx> commit 8b20839988f1ed5e534b270f3776709b640dc7e0 upstream. Function devm_kzalloc() will return a NULL pointer. However, in function isp1704_charger_probe(), the return value of devm_kzalloc() is directly used without validation. This may result in a bad memory access bug.
