Subject: [PATCH 5.4 175/389] intel_th: msu-sink: Potential dereference of null pointer

From: Jiasheng Jiang <jiasheng@...as.ac.cn>

[ Upstream commit 82f76a4a720791d889de775b5f7541d601efc8bd ]

The return value of dma_alloc_coherent() needs to be checked.
To avoid use of null pointer in sg_set_buf() in case of the failure of
alloc.

Fixes: f220df66f676 ("intel_th: msu-sink: An example msu buffer "sink"")
