Summary
backlight: pm8941: Add NULL check in wled_configure()
Details

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

backlight: pm8941: Add NULL check in wled_configure()

devmkasprintf() returns NULL when memory allocation fails. Currently, wledconfigure() does not check for this case, which results in a NULL pointer dereference.

Add NULL check after devm_kasprintf() to prevent this issue.
