Subject: [PATCH v3] staging: rtlwifi: Fix potential NULL pointer dereference of kzalloc

phydm.internal is allocated using kzalloc which is used multiple
times without a check for NULL pointer. This patch avoids such a
scenario by returning 0, consistent with the failure case.

Signed-off-by: Aditya Pakki <pakki001@....edu>

v2: Move the signed off line above
v1: Patch collision with different things, fix as per Greg
