X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=533acc0e8df7d6553f11cf91c177211cb6037968;p=linux-beck.git pwm: Fix possible ZERO_SIZE_PTR pointer dereferencing error. Since we cannot make sure the 'chip->npwm' will always be none zero here, and then if either equal to zero, the kzalloc() will return ZERO_SIZE_PTR, which equals to ((void *)16). So this patch fix this with just doing the zero check before calling kzalloc().
