Subject: [PATCH 1/3] net-gianfar: Less function calls in
 gfar_ethflow_to_filer_table() after error detection

From: Markus Elfring <elfring@...rs.sourceforge.net>
Date: Fri, 1 Jan 2016 11:16:04 +0100

The kfree() function was called in one case by the
gfar_ethflow_to_filer_table() function during error handling
even if a passed variable contained a null pointer.

* Return directly if a memory allocation failed at the beginning.

* Adjust jump targets according to the Linux coding style convention.

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.
