Subject: [PATCH 1/2] gpio: mt7621: report failure of devm_kasprintf()
Date: Wed, 21 Nov 2018 19:06:12 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1542823573-20228-1-git-send-email-hofrat@osadl.org> (raw)

kasprintf() may return NULL on failure of internal allocation thus the
assigned  label  is not safe if not explicitly checked. On error
mediatek_gpio_bank_probe() returns negative values so -ENOMEM in the
(unlikely) failure case should be fine here.

Signed-off-by: Nicholas Mc Guire <hofrat@osadl.org>
Fixes: 4ba9c3afda41 ("gpio: mt7621: Add a driver for MT7621")
---

V2: The dev_err() for the unlikely case of the devm_kasprintf()
    failing was removed on request from Bartosz Golaszewski 
    <bgolaszewski@baylibre.com>

Problem located with experimental coccinelle script

Patch was compile tested with: omega2p_defconfig, SOC_MT7621=y,
GPIOLIB=y, GPIO_MT7621=y

Patch is against 4.20-rc3 (localversion-next is next-20181121)
