Allocation for priv->pFirmware may fail, so a null check is necessary.
priv->pFirmware is accessed at line 2743. I added the check and made
appropriate changes to propagate the errno to the caller.

Always run checkpatch.pl on your patch before sending it so you do not
get grumpy emails telling you to run checkpatch.pl before sending your
patch :)

priv->pFirmware is accessed later in rtl8192_adapter_start. I added the
check and made appropriate changes to propagate the errno to the caller.

The "changelog" goes below the --- line, as is described in the kernel
documentation.
Also, please look at other patches for this driver, use the same prefix
for the subject line as those did.
v3 please?
