Subject: [PATCH 6/8] powerpc/nvram: Delete three error messages for a failed memory allocation
Date: Thu, 19 Jan 2017 18:00:38 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <00845261-8528-d011-d3b8-e9355a231d3a@users.sourceforge.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <53545d97-6ed5-ff17-384f-82e72b3592f9@users.sourceforge.net>

The script "checkpatch.pl" pointed information out like the following.

WARNING: Possible unnecessary 'out of memory' message

Thus fix affected source code places.
