[PATCH] pinctrl: sx150x: handle failure case of devm_kstrdup

From: Nicholas Mc Guire
Date: Sun Dec 02 2018 - 05:08:29 EST


devm_kstrdup() may return NULL if internal allocation failed.
Thus using label, name is unsafe without checking. Therefor
in the unlikely case of allocation failure, sx150x_probe() simply
returns -ENOMEM.

---

Problem located with an experimental coccinelle script

Patch was compile tested with: lpc32xx_defconfig (implies PINCTRL_SX150X=y)
Note that while lpc32xx_defconfig contains PINCTRL_SX150X=y after make
lpc32xx_defconfig it is *not* set - seems to be a missing entry in
drivers/pincrtl/Kconfig - so PINCRTL and PINCTRL_SX150X had to be
manually enabled.

Patch is against 4.20-rc4 (localversion-next is next-20181130)
