Subject: [PATCH 4.14 25/49] staging: rtl8188eu: Fix potential NULL pointer dereference of kcalloc

[ Upstream commit 7671ce0d92933762f469266daf43bd34d422d58c ]

hwxmits is allocated via kcalloc and not checked for failure before its
dereference. The patch fixes this problem by returning error upstream
in rtl8723bs, rtl8188eu.
