Subject[PATCH 4.19 18/72] 9p: potential NULL dereference
Date
[ Upstream commit 72ea0321088df2c41eca8cc6160c24bcceb56ac7 ]

p9_tag_alloc() is supposed to return error pointers, but we accidentally
return a NULL here. It would cause a NULL dereference in the caller.

Fixes: 996d5b4db4b1 ("9p: Use a slab for allocating requests")
