[PATCH v3 2/2] test_firmware: return ENOMEM instead of ENOSPC on failed memory allocation

[Mirsad Todorovac <mirsad.todorovac@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

[ Upstream commit 7dae593cd226a0bca61201cf85ceb9335cf63682 ]

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".

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 failing allocation.

The semantically correct should be:

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

[ This is the backport of the patch to specific to the 5.4 branch. There are no		]
[ semantic differences in the commit when compared to upstream, only fewer instances	]
[ of error code replacement. Backport is provided for completeness sake			]
[ so it would apply to all of the supported LTS kernels.				]

 v3:
	fixed a minor typo. no change to commit.

 v2:
	tested on 5.4 stable build.
