As kcalloc() may fail, check its return value to avoid a NULL pointer
dereference when passing it to of_property_read_u32_array().

multiple properties")

Signed-off-by that was part of v1, is missing in v2.
I see it below the ---
---
changelog:
v2:
- Return -ENOMEM directly on allocation failure.
Except for a newline that is removed, v2 is the same as v1, or I miss
something?
v1 was:
+ if (!thread_group_array) {
+ ret = -ENOMEM;
+ goto out_free;
+ }
Which was wrong.
Well maybe there was several v1, I'm talking about
