From: Ido Schimmel <idosch@xxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit d9d5420273997664a1c09151ca86ac993f2f89c1 ] We should not trigger a warning when a memory allocation fails. Remove the WARN_ON(). The warning is constantly triggered by syzkaller when it is injecting faults: [ 2230.758664] FAULT_INJECTION: forcing a failure.
