4.19-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 6a4d1b18ef00a7b182740b7b4d8a0fcd317368f8 ] If scomp_acomp_comp_decomp() fails to allocate memory for the destination then we never copy back the data we compressed. It is probably best to return an error code instead 0 in case of failure. I haven't found any user that is using acomp_request_set_params() without the `dst' buffer so there is probably no harm.
