Subject: [PATCH v2] staging: rtlwifi: Fix potential NULL pointer dereference of kzalloc
Date:   Tue, 19 Mar 2019 15:15:08 -0500
Message-Id: <20190319201509.16252-1-pakki001@umn.edu>
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

phydm.internal is allocated using kzalloc which is used multiple
times without a check for NULL pointer. This patch avoids such a
scenario.
