[PATCH] media: davinci_vpfe: bail out if kmalloc failed

From: Nicholas Mc Guire
Date: Tue Nov 20 2018 - 06:32:02 EST


The kmalloc is passed indirectly to from but with an offset
which if not 0 will cause the null check if (to && from && size)
to succeed. An explicit !NULL check is thus added for params here.

ipipe_s_config and ipipe_g_config - both fail to check kmalloc
are called from ipipe_ioctl where a negative return is a valid
indication of error so simply setting rval = -ENOMEM seems ok.

Problem located with experimental coccinelle patch

Patch was compile tested with: davinci_all_defconfig + SAGING=y,
STAGING_MEDIA=y, MEDIA_SUPPORT=m, MEDIA_CONTROLLER=y,
VIDEO_V4L2_SUBDEV_API=y, VIDEO_DAVINCI_VPBE_DISPLAY=m,
VIDEO_DM365_VPFE=m
(with some coccicheck findings unrelated to the proposed change)

Patch is against 4.20-rc3 (localversion-next is next-20181120)
