Subject: drm/savage: dereferencing an error pointer

From: Dan Carpenter <[email protected]>

commit f7741aa75e76440f4e9ecfe512feebe9bce33ca8 upstream.

A recent cleanup changed the kmalloc() + copy_from_user() to memdup_user() but the error handling wasn't updated so we might call kfree(-EFAULT) and crash.
