Bug#509167: mdadm: check asprintf() return codes

[Dustin Kirkland]

Package: mdadm
Version: 2.6.7.1-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

Hello,

I have attached a minor patch that we're carrying in Ubuntu, against the
mdadm-2.6.7.1-1 source.

This rather trivial patch checks the return codes of 3 asprintf() memory
allocations, to prevent segfaults on memory-challenged systems.

Thanks,
