4.17-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Laura Abbott <[email protected]> commit 0a2bc00341dcfcc793c0dbf4f8d43adf60458b05 upstream. The expected return value from ion_map_kernel is an ERR_PTR. The error path for a vmalloc failure currently just returns NULL, triggering a warning in ion_buffer_kmap_get. Encode the vmalloc failure as an ERR_PTR.
