[PATCH v1 1/1] test_firmware: return ENOMEM instead of ENOSPC on failed allocation

[Mirsad Goran Todorovac <mirsad.todorovac@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

In a couple of situations like:

	name = kstrndup(buf, count, GFP_KERNEL);
	if (!name)
		return -ENOSPC;

the error is not actually "No space left on device", but "Out of memory".

So, it is semantically correct to return -ENOMEM in all failed kstrndup()
and kzalloc() cases in this driver, as it is not a problem with disk
space, but with kernel memory allocator.

The semantically correct should be:

        name = kstrndup(buf, count, GFP_KERNEL);
        if (!name)
                return -ENOMEM;
