Subject: [PATCH] intel_th: msu: Fix missing allocation failure check on a kstrndup
Git-commit: 063f097fd65a90fca2cd49411a2d6e35b8ca25db
Patch-mainline: v5.4-rc7
References: jsc#SLE-12705

Commit 615c164da0eb ("intel_th: msu: Introduce buffer interface") forgot
to add a NULL pointer check for the value returned from kstrdup(), which
will be troublesome if the allocation fails.

Fix that by adding the check.

Addresses-coverity: ("Dereference null return")
Fixes: 615c164da0eb ("intel_th: msu: Introduce buffer interface")
