Subject: efiemu/loadcore: Add grub_calloc() failure check
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=09c512b8fabdbc19d5698925c796c43def240bc0;p=thirdparty%2Fgrub.git

efiemu/loadcore: Add grub_calloc() failure check

Add a failure check after grub_calloc() call. If grub_calloc()
fails, e.g., due to memory allocation failure, it returns NULL.
Then using grub_efiemu_elfsyms, which will be NULL, later will
result in a NULL pointer dereference.
