Subject: [PATCH 1/5] nl80211: always check nla_nest_start() return value
Date: Wed, 14 Sep 2016 10:11:54 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1473840718-5605-1-git-send-email-johannes@sipsolutions.net> (raw)

From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

If the message got full during nla_nest_start(), it can return
NULL. None of the cases here seem like that can really happen,
but check the return value nonetheless.
