4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 662f9a105b4322b8559d448f86110e6ec24b8738 ] If xdr_inline_decode() fails then we end up returning ERR_PTR(0). The caller treats NULL returns as -ENOMEM so it doesn't really hurt runtime, but obviously we intended to set an error code here.
