From: Colin Ian King <colin.k...@canonical.com>
Currently the allocation of priv->oldaddr is not null checked which will
lead to subsequent errors when accessing priv->oldaddr. Fix this with
a null pointer check and a return of -ENOMEM on allocation failure.
Detected with Coccinelle:
drivers/staging/rtl8192u/r8192U_core.c:1708:2-15: alloc with no test,
possible model on line 1723
Fixes: 8fc8598e61f6 ("Staging: Added Realtek rtl8192u driver to staging")
