Input: serio HIL MLC - don't deref null, don't leak and return proper error
While reviewing various users of kernel memory allocation functions I came across drivers/input/serio/hil_mlc.c::hil_mlc_register() and noticed that: - it calls kzalloc() but fails to check for a NULL return before use. - it makes several allocations and if one fails it doesn't free the previous ones. - It doesn't return -ENOMEM in the failed memory allocation case (it just crashes). This patch corrects all of the above and also reworks the only caller of this function that I could find (drivers/input/serio/hp_sdc_mlc.c::hp_sdc_mlc_out()) so that it now checks the return value of hil_mlc_register() and properly propagates it on failure and I also restructured the code to remove some labels and goto's to make it, IMHO nicer to read.
