[patch] HID: logitech-hidpp: leaks and NULL dereferences

From: Dan Carpenter <hidden>
Date: 2014-10-31 09:15:32
Also in: kernel-janitors
Subsystem: hid core layer, hid logitech drivers, hid++ logitech drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Jiri Kosina, Benjamin Tissoires, Linus Torvalds

Shift the allocation down a few lines to avoid a memory leak and also
add a check for allocation failure.

Fixes: 2f31c5252910 ('HID: Introduce hidpp, a module to handle Logitech hid++ devices')
Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter <redacted>
