From: MichelleJin <shjy180909@xxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 111461d573741c17eafad029ac93474fa9adcce0 ] When rhashtable_init() fails, it returns -EINVAL. However, since error return value of rhashtable_init is not checked, it can cause use of uninitialized pointers. So, fix unhandled errors of rhashtable_init.
