kmalloc_array() is called to allocate memory for tx->descp. If it fails,
the function __sdma_txclean() is called:
  __sdma_txclean(dd, tx);

However, in the function __sdma_txclean(), tx-descp is dereferenced if
tx->num_desc is not zero:
  sdma_unmap_desc(dd, &tx->descp[0]);

To fix this possible null-pointer dereference, assign the return value of
kmalloc_array() to a local variable descp, and then assign it to tx->descp
if it is not NULL. Otherwise, go to enomem.

v3:
* Add fixes line.
  Thank Jason Gunthorpe for helpful advice.
v2:
* Assign the return value of kmalloc_array() to a local variable and then
check it instead of assigning 0 to tx->num_desc when memory allocation
fails.

I fixed the wonky code formatting and applied to for-rc, thanks
