[PATCH] kbuild: check return value of asprintf()

From: Namhyung Kim
Date: Fri Oct 22 2010 - 10:32:31 EST


Check return value of asprintf() in docsect() and exit if error
occurs. This removes following warning:

HOSTCC scripts/basic/docproc
scripts/basic/docproc.c: In function âdocsectâ:
scripts/basic/docproc.c:336: warning: ignoring return value of âasprintfâ,
declared with attribute warn_unused_result
