arch/alpha/kernel: Add kmalloc NULL tests
Check that the result of kmalloc is not NULL before passing it to other functions. The semantic match that finds this problem is as follows: (http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/) // <smpl> @@ expression *x; identifier f; constant char *C; @@ x = \(kmalloc\|kcalloc\|kzalloc\)(...); ... when != x == NULL when != x != NULL when != (x || ...) ( kfree(x) f(...,C,...,x,...) | *f(...,x,...) | *x->f ) // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> Cc: Ivan Kokshaysky <ink@jurassic.park.msu.ru> Cc: Richard Henderson <rth@twiddle.net> Signed-off-by: Matt Turner <mattst88@gmail.com>
