CVE-2022-50359

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

media: cx88: Fix a null-ptr-deref bug in buffer_prepare()

When the driver calls cx88_risc_buffer() to prepare the buffer, the
function call may fail, resulting in a empty buffer and null-ptr-deref
later in buffer_queue().

The following log can reveal it:

[   41.822762] general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xdffffc0000000000: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP KASAN PTI

Fix this by checking the return value of cx88_risc_buffer()
