[PATCH 1/2] net/smc: Return directly after a failed kzalloc() in smc_fill_gid_list()

[Markus Elfring]

From: Markus Elfring <elfring@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Date: Sun, 31 Dec 2023 15:15:19 +0100

The kfree() function was called in one case by
the smc_fill_gid_list() 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.
