As kcalloc() may fail, check its return value to avoid a NULL pointer dereference when passing it to of_property_read_u32_array().
Fixes: 790a1662d3a26 ("powerpc/smp: Parse ibm,thread-groups with multiple properties") Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org
Signed-off-by that was part of v1, is missing in v2.
I see it below the ---
changelog: v2:
- Return -ENOMEM directly on allocation failure.
Except for a newline that is removed, v2 is the same as v1, or I miss something?
v1 was:
+ if (!thread_group_array) { + ret = -ENOMEM; + goto out_free; + }
Which was wrong.
Well maybe there was several v1, I'm talking about https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250918131513.3557422-1-lgs201920130244@gmail.c...
