[PATCH 09/52] SUNRPC: Fix up an error return value in gss_import_sec_context_kerberos()

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

From: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 14ace024b1e16d2bb9445c8387494fbbd820a738 upstream.

If the context allocation fails, the function currently returns a random
error code, since the variable 'p' still points to a valid memory location.

Ensure that it returns ENOMEM...
