A few update suggestions were taken into account
from static source code analysis.

Markus Elfring (5):
  Delete an error message for a failed memory allocation in two functions
  Fix a typo in five comment lines
  Improve a size determination in two functions
  Adjust 11 checks for null pointers
  Delete an unnecessary return statement in two functions

Omit an extra message for a memory allocation failure in these functions.

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.

Replace the specification of data structures by pointer dereferences
as the parameter for the operator "sizeof" to make the corresponding size
determination a bit safer according to the Linux coding style convention.

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.

The script “checkpatch.pl” pointed information out like the following.

Comparison to NULL could be written …

Thus fix the affected source code places.
