[PATCH 2/4][MAC80211]: Fix not checked kmalloc() result.

From: Pavel Emelyanov <hidden>
Date: 2008-05-06 14:52:06
Also in: linux-wireless
Subsystem: mac80211, the rest · Maintainers: Johannes Berg, Linus Torvalds

The new_node kmallocation is not checked for success, so add
this check.

BTW, it also happens under the read_lock.
