Subject: [PATCH] Bluetooth: btintel: Fix incorrect out of memory check
Date: Thu,  9 Sep 2021 13:35:41 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210909123541.34779-1-colin.king@canonical.com> (raw)

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com>

Currently *ven_data is being assigned the return from a kmalloc call but
the out-of-memory check is checking ven_data and not *ven_data. Fix this
by adding the missing dereference * operator,

Addresses-Coverity: ("Dereference null return")
Fixes: 70dd978952bc ("Bluetooth: btintel: Define a callback to fetch codec config data")
