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

HID: playstation: Add missing check for input_ff_create_memless

The ps_gamepad_create() function calls input_ff_create_memless() without verifying its return value, which can lead to incorrect behavior or potential crashes when FF effects are triggered.

Add a check for the return value of input_ff_create_memless().
