Subject: [PATCH][next] drm/vkms: Fix missing kmalloc allocation failure check
Date:   Fri, 15 Jan 2021 13:09:11 +0000

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com>

Currently the kmalloc allocation for config is not being null
checked and could potentially lead to a null pointer dereference.
Fix this by adding the missing null check.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Dereference null return value")
Fixes: 2df7af93fdad ("drm/vkms: Add vkms_config type")
