[PATCH 3.13 51/99] staging:iio:impedance:ad5933: correct error check

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Thu Feb 20 2014 - 18:54:27 EST


3.13-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Julia Lawall <Julia.Lawall@xxxxxxx>

commit e9ed104de68c345c9a827225e93c74c6894613a9 upstream.

iio_kfifo_allocate returns NULL in case of error.

The semantic match that finds this problem is as follows:
(http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

// <smpl>
@@
expression *x;
identifier f;
statement S1,S2;
@@

*x = f(...);
if (x) { <+... when != if (...) S1 else S2
-ENOMEM ...+> }
// </smpl>
