[PATCH AUTOSEL 5.0 05/99] libnvdimm/namespace: Fix a potential NULL pointer dereference

From: Sasha Levin
Date: Tue May 07 2019 - 02:09:44 EST


From: Kangjie Lu <kjlu@xxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 55c1fc0af29a6c1b92f217b7eb7581a882e0c07c ]

In case kmemdup fails, the fix goes to blk_err to avoid NULL
pointer dereference.
