A few update suggestions were taken into account
from static source code analysis.

Markus Elfring (5):
  Improve a size determination in fsl_hv_open()
  Delete an error message for a failed memory allocation in fsl_hv_open()
  Return the success indication only as a constant in fsl_hv_open()
  Use kcalloc() in ioctl_memcpy()
  Delete error messages for failed memory allocations in ioctl_memcpy()

Replace the specification of a data structure by a pointer dereference
as the parameter for the operator "sizeof" to make the corresponding size
determination a bit safer according to the Linux coding style convention.

Omit an extra message for a memory allocation failure in this function.

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.

* Return a success code without storing it in an intermediate variable.

* Delete the local variable "ret" which became unnecessary with
  this refactoring.

* A multiplication for the size determination of a memory allocation
  indicated that an array data structure should be processed.
  Thus use the corresponding function "kcalloc".

  This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.

* Replace the specification of a data type by a pointer dereference
  to make the corresponding size determination a bit safer according to
  the Linux coding style convention.
