Subject: [PATCH 1/1] Properly check return values of kmalloc and vmbus_recvpacket
Date: Thu,  9 Dec 2010 12:23:29 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1291926209-17120-1-git-send-email-hjanssen@microsoft.com> (raw)

Correct ugly oversight, we need to check the return values of kmalloc
and vmbus_recvpacket and return if they fail. I also tightened up the
call to kmalloc. 

Thanks to Evgeniy Polyakov <zbr@ioremap.net>  for pointing this out.
