adapter->HalData is used in the GET_HAL_DATA macro all across the

rtl188eu_alloc_haldata() was successful or not.

To avoid errors when the allocation fails convert the type of field
HalData from void pointer to struct hal_data_8188eu. Remove
GET_HAL_DATA, rtl8188eu_alloc_haldata(), rtl8188e_free_hal_data().

This doesn't apply to my tree anymore, due to the other changes that
were submitted for this driver. Can you rebase and resend please?


Sure, I'll do.

Thanks,
