[ Upstream commit c7b607fa9325ccc94982774c505176677117689c ]
Currently if opening /dev/null fails to open then file pointer fp
is null and further access to fp via fprintf will cause a null
pointer dereference. Fix this by returning a negative error value
when a null fp is detected.
Detected using cppcheck static analysis:

that condition '!fp' is not redundant
if (!fp)

pointer dereference
fprintf(fp, "Sum: %d ", ret);

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.
