[PATCH net] rxrpc: Fix wrong error return in rxrpc_connect_call()

From: David Howells
Date: Wed Jan 11 2023 - 13:09:15 EST



Fix rxrpc_connect_call() to return -ENOMEM rather than 0 if it fails to
look up a peer.

This generated a smatch warning:
net/rxrpc/call_object.c:303 rxrpc_connect_call() warn: missing error code 'ret'

I think this also fixes a syzbot-found bug:

rxrpc: Assertion failed - 1(0x1) == 11(0xb) is false
------------[ cut here ]------------
kernel BUG at net/rxrpc/call_object.c:645!

where the call being put is in the wrong state - as would be the case if we
failed to clear up correctly after the error in rxrpc_connect_call().

Fixes: 9d35d880e0e4 ("rxrpc: Move client call connection to the I/O thread")
