Function devm_kzalloc() will return a NULL pointer. However, in function
isp1704_charger_probe(), the return value of devm_kzalloc() is directly
used without validation. This may result in a bad memory access bug.

fail0 returns ret value value which is initialized to -ENODEV. It could
be fragile if somebody change default initialization ret value to
something else (wort to 0). In your case before goto fail0 it is needed
to explicitly set ret to -ENOMEM so prevent future problems.

Function devm_kzalloc() will return a NULL pointer. However, in function
isp1704_charger_probe(), the return value of devm_kzalloc() is directly
used without validation. This may result in a bad memory access bug.
