Subject: [PATCH 4.19 10/49] nfs: nfs4clinet: check the return value of kstrdup()

From: Xiaoke Wang <xkernel.wang@...mail.com>

[ Upstream commit fbd2057e5329d3502a27491190237b6be52a1cb6 ]

kstrdup() returns NULL when some internal memory errors happen, it is
better to check the return value of it so to catch the memory error in
time.
