From 530fd82a9fea5bba8e044bdf6fdf2ddc495e3807 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alexander Duyck Date: Mon, 2 Nov 2015 17:09:29 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] ixgbe: Return error on failure to allocate mac_table Add a check to make certain mac_table was actually allocated and is not NULL. If it is NULL return -ENOMEM and allow the probe routine to fail rather then causing a NULL pointer dereference further down the line.
