Wen Yang b471109806 pvcalls-front: fix potential null dereference
static checker warning:
    drivers/xen/pvcalls-front.c:373 alloc_active_ring()
    error: we previously assumed 'map->active.ring' could be null
           (see line 357)

drivers/xen/pvcalls-front.c
    351 static int alloc_active_ring(struct sock_mapping *map)
    352 {
    353     void *bytes;
    354
    355     map->active.ring = (struct pvcalls_data_intf *)
    356         get_zeroed_page(GFP_KERNEL);
    357     if (!map->active.ring)

    362                     PVCALLS_RING_ORDER);
    363     if (!bytes)
    364         goto out;
    365
    366     map->active.data.in = bytes;
    367     map->active.data.out = bytes +
    368         XEN_FLEX_RING_SIZE(PVCALLS_RING_ORDER);
    369
    370     return 0;
    371
    372 out:
--> 373     free_active_ring(map);
                                 ^^^
Add null check on map->active.ring before dereferencing it to avoid
any NULL pointer dereferences.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
