Subject[PATCH 4.18 025/350] mailbox: PCC: handle parse error
Date
4.18-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: David Arcari <darcari@redhat.com>

commit afd0b1fb22269f48d68fdf269891c653818c8047 upstream.

acpi_pcc_probe() calls acpi_table_parse_entries_array() but fails
to check for an error return. This in turn can result in calling
kcalloc() with a negative count as well as emitting the following
misleading erorr message:

[ 2.642015] Could not allocate space for PCC mbox channels

Fixes: 8f8027c5f935 (mailbox: PCC: erroneous error message when parsing ACPI PCCT)
