I realized there is a typo in the subject, the file is p80211conv.c and not .h

Subject: staging: wlan-ng: p80211conv.h: warning I don't understand
Hello all,
I am new to the realm of linux kernel development. I've been sending in small
patches to fix check-patch warnings. I was fixing up the file listed in the
subject when I came across this warning.
drivers/staging/wlan-ng/p80211conv.c:622: WARNING: Possible unnecessary 'out of
memory' message
Source Code:
if (rxmeta == NULL) {
netdev_err(wlandev->netdev,
"%s: Failed to allocate rxmeta.\n", wlandev->name);
result = 1;
goto exit;
}
What is this warning about? How do I go about fixing it?
Thank you,
--Gavin
