[PATCH] Input: MT - Return directly after a failed kzalloc() in input_mt_init_slots()

[Markus Elfring]

From: Markus Elfring <elfring@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

The kfree() function was called in one case by
the input_mt_init_slots() function during error handling
even if the passed variable contained a null pointer.
This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.

Thus return directly after a call of the function “kzalloc” failed
at the beginning.
