[45/48] rtl8192se: Fix BUG caused by failure to check skb allocation

[Greg KH]

3.1-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Larry Finger <Larry.Finger@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit d90db4b12bc1b9b8a787ef28550fdb767ee25a49 upstream.

When downloading firmware into the device, the driver fails to check the
return when allocating an skb. When the allocation fails, a BUG can be
generated, as seen in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=771656.
