4.16-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Emil Velikov <emil.velikov@collabora.com>
[ Upstream commit 789d4c300e10eb2096ee83c3497118e67ccc951e ]
Currently the error pointer returned by msm_alloc_stolen_fb gets passed
to drm_framebuffer_remove. The latter handles only NULL pointers, thus
a nasty crash will occur.
Drop the unnecessary fail label and the associated checks - both err and
fb will be set at this stage.
