Subject: [PATCH] Input: usbtouchscreen - Return directly after a failed
 kmalloc() in nexio_init()

From: Markus Elfring <elfring@...rs.sourceforge.net>
Date: Tue, 26 Dec 2023 21:00:25 +0100

The kfree() function was called in one case by
the nexio_init() function during error handling
even if the passed variable contained a null pointer.
This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.

Thus return directly after a call of the function “kmalloc” failed
at the beginning.
