Subject: [PATCH 3/4] axonram: Return directly after a failed kzalloc() in
 axon_ram_probe()

From: Markus Elfring <elfring@...rs.sourceforge.net>
Date: Thu, 3 Aug 2017 20:23:57 +0200

* Return directly after a call of the function "kzalloc" failed
  at the beginning.

* Delete a repeated check for the local variable "bank"
  which became unnecessary with this refactoring.
