[PATCH 4.16 61/81] commoncap: Handle memory allocation failure.

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

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

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

From: Tetsuo Handa <penguin-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 1f5781725dcbb026438e77091c91a94f678c3522 upstream.

syzbot is reporting NULL pointer dereference at xattr_getsecurity() [1],
for cap_inode_getsecurity() is returning sizeof(struct vfs_cap_data) when
memory allocation failed. Return -ENOMEM if memory allocation failed.
