[PATCH 1/5] staging: comedi: serial2002: Combine four kcalloc() calls into one in serial2002_setup_subdevs()

From: SF Markus Elfring
Date: Thu Dec 08 2016 - 06:33:40 EST

The function "kcalloc" was called in three cases by the function
"serial2002_setup_subdevs" without checking immediately if it failed.
This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.

* Perform the desired memory allocation (and release at the end) by a single
function call instead.

* Adjust a jump target so that a redundant check is avoided.

Fixes: 623a73926c7012e3bb132e225621890207f5c611 ("staging: comedi: serial2002: split up serial_2002_open()")
