exynos_pages_to_sg() internally calls sg_kmalloc() which can return no pages when the system is under high memory crunch. One such instance is chromeos-install in the chromeos. This patch adds check for the return value of the function in subject to return NULL on failure.

BUG=chrome-os-partner:9481 TEST=built, ran on snow and tried chromeos-install without a crash

No BUG/TEST/Change-Id on a public patch, please. Also, I didn't see this posted on neither samsung-soc, nor the dri-devel list?
