[PATCH] staging: unisys: potential dereference of null pointer

From: Jiasheng Jiang
Date: Wed Dec 15 2021 - 04:22:25 EST


The return value of kmalloc() needs to be checked.
To avoid devdata->cmdrsp to be null in case of the failure of alloc.

Fixes: d2c3506be646 ("staging: unisys: Add s-Par visorhba")
