[PATCH] SCSI, target: Avoid mem leak and needless work intransport_generic_get_mem().

[Jesper Juhl]

In drivers/target/target_core_transport.c::transport_generic_get_mem() 
there are a few potential memory leaks in the error paths. This patch 
makes sure that we free previously allocated memory when other allocations 
fail. It also moves some work (INIT_LIST_HEAD() and assignment to 
se_mem->se_len) below all the allocations so that if something fails we 
don't do the work at all.

Please review and consider for inclusion.
I don't have any hardware to actually test this so it is compile tested 
only.
