There is a potential NULL pointer dereference in case kzalloc()
fails and returns NULL.
Fix this by adding a NULL check on *session*
Also, update the function header with information about the
expected return on failure and remove unnecessary variable rc.
This issue was detected with the help of Coccinelle.

Currently the assignment is flipped and rc is always 0.

The function alloc_dma_buffer() is called from ibmvmc_add_buffer(),
in which a spin lock be held here, so we should use GFP_ATOMIC when
a lock is held.

This driver is a logical device which provides an
interface between the hypervisor and a management
partition. This interface is like a message
passing interface. This management partition
is intended to provide an alternative to HMC-based
system management.
VMC enables the Management LPAR to provide basic
logical partition functions:
- Logical Partition Configuration
- Boot, start, and stop actions for individual
partitions
- Display of partition status
- Management of virtual Ethernet
- Management of virtual Storage
- Basic system management
This driver is to be used for the POWER Virtual
Management Channel Virtual Adapter on the PowerPC
platform. It provides a character device which
allows for both request/response and async message
support through the /dev/ibmvmc node.
