patch "staging: comedi: gsc_hpdi: check dma_alloc_coherent() return value" added to staging-linus

[<gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>]

This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled

    staging: comedi: gsc_hpdi: check dma_alloc_coherent() return value

to my staging git tree which can be found at
    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/staging.git
in the staging-linus branch.

The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree
(usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.)

The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the
next -rc kernel release.

If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

Subject: staging: comedi: gsc_hpdi: check dma_alloc_coherent() return value

The "auto-attach" handler function `gsc_hpdi_auto_attach()` calls
`dma_alloc_coherent()` in a loop to allocate some DMA data buffers, and
also calls it to allocate a buffer for a DMA descriptor chain.  However,
it does not check the return value of any of these calls.  Change
`gsc_hpdi_auto_attach()` to return `-ENOMEM` if any of these
`dma_alloc_coherent()` calls fail.  This will result in the comedi core
calling the "detach" handler `gsc_hpdi_detach()` as part of the
clean-up, which will call `gsc_hpdi_free_dma()` to free any allocated
DMA coherent memory buffers.
