ipack: ipoctal: fix missing allocation-failure check
commit 445c8132727728dc297492a7d9fc074af3e94ba3 upstream. Add the missing error handling when allocating the transmit buffer to avoid dereferencing a NULL pointer in write() should the allocation ever fail. Fixes: ba4dc61fe8c5 ("Staging: ipack: add support for IP-OCTAL mezzanine board") Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # 3.5 Acked-by: Samuel Iglesias Gonsalvez <siglesias@igalia.com> Signed-off-by: Johan Hovold <johan@kernel.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20210917114622.5412-5-johan@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
