From 01da2425f327d7ac673e594bee5655523115970b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Akinobu Mita Date: Sat, 14 Jul 2007 11:03:35 +0900 Subject: [PATCH] sysfs: avoid kmem_cache_free(NULL) kmem_cache_free() with NULL is not allowed. But it may happen if out of memory error is triggered in sysfs_new_dirent(). This patch fixes that error handling.
