Subject: [PATCH] misc: fastrpc: check return value of devm_kasprintf()

devm_kasprintf() returns a pointer to dynamically allocated memory.
Pointer could be NULL in case allocation fails. Check pointer validity.
Identified with coccinelle (kmerr.cocci script).

Fixes: 3abe3ab3cdab ("misc: fastrpc: add secure domain support")
Signed-off-by: Claudiu Beznea <claudiu.beznea@...rochip.com>

Hi,

This has been addressed using kmerr.cocci script proposed for update
at [1].

Thank you,
