BUG: KASAN: null-ptr-deref in strcmp+0x2e/0x50<br />
Read of size 1 at addr 0000000000000000 by task python3/2640<br />
Call Trace:<br />
strcmp<br />
__of_find_property<br />
of_find_property<br />
pinctrl_dt_to_map<br />

kasprintf() would return NULL pointer when kmalloc() fail to allocate.<br />
So directly return ENOMEM, if kasprintf() return NULL pointer.
