test_firmware: return ENOMEM instead of ENOSPC on failed memory allocation
In a couple of situations like name = kstrndup(buf, count, GFP_KERNEL); if (!name) return -ENOSPC; the error is not actually "No space left on device", but "Out of memory". It is semantically correct to return -ENOMEM in all failed kstrndup() and kzalloc() cases in this driver, as it is not a problem with disk space, but with kernel memory allocator failing allocation. The semantically correct should be: name = kstrndup(buf, count, GFP_KERNEL); if (!name) return -ENOMEM; Cc: Dan Carpenter <error27@gmail.com> Cc: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de> Cc: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Cc: "Luis R.
