Subject: [PATCH v2 0/3] staging: bcm2835-camera: fix coding style issues
Date: Fri, 10 Mar 2017 00:30:03 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover.1489085851.git.aishpant@gmail.com> (raw)

This patchset fixes the following issues: 

[1] Added null check after memory allocation to avoid a possible null 
    pointer dereference 
[2] Replaced instances of kmalloc and memset with a kzalloc 
[3] Replaced null error return values with kernel preferred error
    return values i.e. return ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM) instead of NULL 

Changes in v2:
-- Fix null dereference issue (ouch!)
-- Rebase from origin
