Subject: [PATCH 3.18 17/22] KEYS: Fix an error code in request_master_key()
Date: Thu, 13 Jul 2017 17:42:57 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170713153934.844443761@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20170713153934.089183081@linuxfoundation.org>

3.18-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com>

commit 57cb17e764ba0aaa169d07796acce54ccfbc6cae upstream.

This function has two callers and neither are able to handle a NULL
return.  Really, -EINVAL is the correct thing return here anyway.  This
fixes some static checker warnings like:

	security/keys/encrypted-keys/encrypted.c:709 encrypted_key_decrypt()
	error: uninitialized symbol 'master_key'.

Fixes: 7e70cb497850 ("keys: add new key-type encrypted")
