From 941095c5af57fa67c5beb5370adca1e32ff52cd7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Berg Date: Mon, 15 Jan 2018 09:58:27 +0100 Subject: cfg80211: check dev_set_name() return value commit 59b179b48ce2a6076448a44531242ac2b3f6cef2 upstream. syzbot reported a warning from rfkill_alloc(), and after a while I think that the reason is that it was doing fault injection and the dev_set_name() failed, leaving the name NULL, and we didn't check the return value and got to rfkill_alloc() with a NULL name. Since we really don't want a NULL name, we ought to check the return value.
