You are right, I found that variable buf also don't make sense here,
maybe this could be more clear.
param = kzalloc(sizeof(struct viawget_wpa_param), GFP_KERNEL);
if (param == NULL)
return -ENOMEM;
removing two unnecessary variable, buf and blen.
In this situation, I should send a new patch v2 for it base on the
previous path? or send a new patch include all changes?
