[PATCH -next] UNRPC: Return specific error code on kmalloc failure

From: Yang Li <hidden>
Date: 2021-09-10 09:33:39
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: kernel nfsd, sunrpc, and lockd servers, networking [general], nfs, sunrpc, and lockd clients, the rest · Maintainers: Chuck Lever, Jeff Layton, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Trond Myklebust, Anna Schumaker, Linus Torvalds

Although the callers of this function only care about whether the
return value is null or not, we should still give a rigorous
error code.

Smatch tool warning:
net/sunrpc/auth_gss/svcauth_gss.c:784 gss_write_verf() warn: returning
-1 instead of -ENOMEM is sloppy

No functional change, just more standardized.
