[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.14 21/43] staging: rtlwifi: Fix potential NULL pointer dereference of kzalloc

From: Aditya Pakki <pakki001@xxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 6a8ca24590a2136921439b376c926c11a6effc0e ]

phydm.internal is allocated using kzalloc which is used multiple
times without a check for NULL pointer. This patch avoids such a
scenario by returning 0, consistent with the failure case.
