[PATCH] vdpa/mlx5: Fix erroneous null pointer checks

From: Alex Dewar
Date: Thu Aug 06 2020 - 15:25:19 EST


In alloc_inout() in net/mlx5_vnet.c, there are a few places where memory
is allocated to *in and *out, but only the values of in and out are
null-checked (i.e. there is a missing dereference). Fix this.

Addresses-Coverity: ("CID 1496603: (REVERSE_INULL)")
Fixes: 1a86b377aa21 ("vdpa/mlx5: Add VDPA driver for supported mlx5 devices")
