Subject: [PATCH] net: usb: ch9200: use kmemdup
Date: Thu, 19 May 2016 19:26:50 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1463666221-16631-1-git-send-email-falakreyaz@gmail.com> (raw)

Use kmemdup when some other buffer is immediately copied into allocated
region. It replaces call to allocation followed by memcpy, by a single
call to kmemdup.
