Subject: [PATCH v2 0/2] meson-nand: two small memory related fixes

While trying to add support for older Meson SoCs to the meson-nand
driver I was experiencing a crash in meson_nfc_read_buf(). While trying
to find out why that happened I inspected the code in that function and
found that there's:
- a missing check on the return value of a kzalloc() call
- a potential memory leak in it

Both fixes have nothing to do with my original crash (for which I'll
open a separate thread).


Changes since v1:
- collected Liang's Acked-by's (thank you!)
- rebased on top of v5.1-rc1


Martin Blumenstingl (2):
  mtd: rawnand: meson: add missing ENOMEM check in meson_nfc_read_buf()
  mtd: rawnand: meson: fix a potential memory leak in meson_nfc_read_buf
