Commit Message

  The kzalloc() in brcmf_pmksa_v3_op() will return null if the
physical memory has run out. As a result, if we dereference
the null value, the null pointer dereference bug will happen.

Return -ENOMEM from brcmf_pmksa_v3_op() if kzalloc() fails
for pmk_op.

Fixes: a96202acaea4 ("wifi: brcmfmac: cfg80211: Add support for PMKID_V3 operations")
Signed-off-by: Duoming Zhou <duoming@zju.edu.cn>
---
Changes in v2:
  - Drop the new label and just return -ENOMEM.

This doesn't fix anything. It doesn't stop the execution path; it'll continue and immediately dereference the NULL pmk_op in the next line...

Crap. Do I look bad :-( Thanks for catching my blunder. I was seeing what I 
wanted to see I guess.
