4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Emil Velikov <emil.velikov@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 789d4c300e10eb2096ee83c3497118e67ccc951e ] Currently the error pointer returned by msm_alloc_stolen_fb gets passed to drm_framebuffer_remove. The latter handles only NULL pointers, thus a nasty crash will occur. Drop the unnecessary fail label and the associated checks - both err and fb will be set at this stage.
