3.16.48-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 293dffaad8d500e1a5336eeb90d544cf40d4fbd8 upstream. If there is not enough space then ceph_decode_32_safe() does a goto bad. We need to return an error code in that situation. The current code returns ERR_PTR(0) which is NULL. The callers are not expecting that and it results in a NULL dereference.
