[PATCH] usb: gadget: ffs: Fix sparse error

[Rohith Seelaboyina]

This patch fixes the sparse error in functionfs
driver.

drivers/usb/gadget/function/f_fs.c:400:44: error: bad
constant experssion.

Dynamic memory allocation through kmalloc is more safer
than declaring variable array size, Fix this error by
using kmalloc for memory allocation, Check if memory
allocation is successful and return -ENOMEM on failure.
