Subject[PATCH] intel_th: msu: fix missing allocation failure check on a kstrndup
Date
From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com>

kstrndup can potentially return NULL, so add a null memory check to
avoid a null pointer reference later on.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Dereference null return")
Fixes: 615c164da0eb ("intel_th: msu: Introduce buffer interface")
Signed-off-by: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com>
