[PATCH] mtd: spear_smi: add NULL check on devm_kzalloc() return value

From: Gustavo A. R. Silva
Date: Thu Jul 06 2017 - 18:37:55 EST


Check return value from call to devm_kzalloc()
in order to prevent a NULL pointer dereference.

This issue was detected using Coccinelle and the following semantic patch:

@@
expression x;
identifier fld;
@@

* x = devm_kzalloc(...);
... when != x == NULL
x->fld
