[PATCH] crypto: caam: Add check for kcalloc() in test_len()
From: Guangshuo Li
Date: Thu Sep 18 2025 - 06:21:35 EST
As kcalloc() may fail, check its return value to avoid a NULL pointer
dereference when passing the buffer to rng->read() and
print_hex_dump_debug().
Fixes: 2be0d806e25e ("crypto: caam - add a test for the RNG")
