[ Upstream commit e1a7418529e33bc4efc346324557251a16a3e79b ]
Currently the allocation of priv->oldaddr is not null checked which will lead to subsequent errors when accessing priv->oldaddr. Fix this with a null pointer check and a return of -ENOMEM on allocation failure.
Detected with Coccinelle: drivers/staging/rtl8192u/r8192U_core.c:1708:2-15: alloc with no test, possible model on line 1723
