Subject: [PATCH] drivers/memstick/core/mspro_block: use kmemdup
Date: Thu, 19 May 2016 19:19:03 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1463665743-16269-1-git-send-email-falakreyaz@gmail.com> (raw)
Use kmemdup when some other buffer is immediately copied into allocated
region. It replaces call to allocation followed by memcpy, by a single
call to kmemdup.
