[PATCH] clk: unchecked return of kmalloc_array

From: Nicholas Mc Guire
Date: Mon Dec 14 2015 - 09:16:33 EST


kmalloc_array return is unchecked - given how parent_names is being treated
in case of allocation error it probably is ok to treat clock->parents the
same way and simply return.

problem was located with coccinelle

(implies CONFIG_ARCH_SHMOBILE_MULTI=y)
