Currently calls to wfx_alloc_hif are not checking for a null return when a memory allocation fails and this leads to null pointer dereferencing issues. Fix this by adding null pointer checks and returning passing down -ENOMEM errors where necessary. The error checking in the current driver is a bit sparse, so this may need some extra attention later if required.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
