4.15-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Colin Ian King <colin.k...@canonical.com> commit 902f4d067a50ccf645a58dd5fb1d113b6e0f9b5b upstream. The allocation of host_data is not null checked, leading to a null pointer dereference if the allocation fails. Fix this by adding a null check and return with -ENOMEM.
