From 0174b381caf89443d92c6fe75f725f2bfeba96b6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sasha Levin Date: Thu, 17 Sep 2015 16:04:19 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] IB/ucma: check workqueue allocation before usage Allocating a workqueue might fail, which wasn't checked so far and would lead to NULL ptr derefs when an attempt to use it was made.
