[PATCH v2 RESEND] brcm80211: fmac: Add error handling for brcmf_usb_dl_writeimage()

Newsgroups dev.linux.lists.brcm80211,org.kernel.vger.linux-kernel,org.kernel.vger.linux-wireless,org.kernel.vger.stable
Message-ID <[email protected]>
The function brcmf_usb_dl_writeimage() calls the function
brcmf_usb_dl_cmd() but dose not check its return value. The
'state.state' and the 'state.bytes' are uninitialized if the
function brcmf_usb_dl_cmd() fails. It is dangerous to use
uninitialized variables in the conditions.

Add error handling for brcmf_usb_dl_cmd() to jump to error
handling path if the brcmf_usb_dl_cmd() fails and the
'state.state' and the 'state.bytes' are uninitialized.

Improve the error message to report more detailed error
information.
