1) The uml_vector_user_bpf() returns pointers so it should return NULL
   instead of false.
2) If the "bpf_prog" allocation failed, it would have eventually lead to
   a crash.  We can't succeed after the error happens so it should just
   return.

Fixes: 9807019a62dc ("um: Loadable BPF "Firmware" for vector drivers")

I will sort this one out, thanks for noticing.

^^^^^ ?

If we don't return here it leads to a NULL dereference.

It says pfg_prog

I cannot find this identifier :)

Oh wow...  That's very embarrassing.  My QC scripts do compile these
as part of the process.  But this wasn't a in of my allmodconfig
and when I do "make arch/um/drivers/vector_user.o", it just silently
returns without printing anything.  I didn't notice that it hadn't
built.

Even "make V=2 arch/um/drivers/vector_user.o" doesn't generate output.

I will resend the patch (on Monday though).
