From 49e67dd17649b60b4d54966e18ec9c80198227f0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johan Hovold Date: Wed, 17 May 2017 17:29:09 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] of: fdt: add missing allocation-failure check The memory allocator passed to __unflatten_device_tree() (e.g. a wrapped kzalloc) can fail so add the missing sanity check to avoid dereferencing a NULL pointer.
