If kzalloc returns null then isp1760_ep_alloc_request performs
a null pointer deference on req.
Dereference, not "deference".
No, it doesn't. It calculates the address of the 'isp1760_request::req'
instead, there's no dereference per se. I suppose this is a first member of
the structure, so this function should work correctly in any case.
Check for null to avoid this.
Detected with smatch static analysis:
drivers/usb/isp1760/isp1760-udc.c:816 isp1760_ep_alloc_request()
error: potential null dereference 'req'. (kzalloc returns null)
Well, the change won't hurt anyway, makes things clearer.
