Subject: [PATCH 4.9 06/16] IB/hfi1: Fix possible null-pointer dereference in _extend_sdma_tx_descs()

From: Tuo Li <islituo@...il.com>

[ Upstream commit cbe71c61992c38f72c2b625b2ef25916b9f0d060 ]

kmalloc_array() is called to allocate memory for tx->descp. If it fails,
the function __sdma_txclean() is called:
  __sdma_txclean(dd, tx);

However, in the function __sdma_txclean(), tx-descp is dereferenced if
tx->num_desc is not zero:
  sdma_unmap_desc(dd, &tx->descp[0]);

To fix this possible null-pointer dereference, assign the return value of
kmalloc_array() to a local variable descp, and then assign it to tx->descp
if it is not NULL. Otherwise, go to enomem.
