Subject: [PATCH] infiniband: cxgb4: fix a potential NULL pointer dereference
Date:   Fri,  8 Mar 2019 23:19:21 -0600
Message-Id: <20190309051921.15212-1-kjlu@umn.edu>
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

get_skb may fail and return NULL. The fix returns "ENOMEM"
when it fails to avoid NULL dereference.
