[PATCH 2/2 V2] livepatch: handle kzalloc failure properly

[Nicholas Mc Guire]

kzalloc() return should be checked. On dummy_alloc() failing
in kzalloc() NULL should be returned.

Problem was located with an experimental coccinelle script

V2: returning NULL is ok but not without cleanup - thanks to
    Petr Mladek <pmladek@xxxxxxxx> for catching this.

Patch was compile tested with: x86_64_defconfig + FTRACE=y
FUNCTION_TRACER=y, EXPERT=y, LATENCYTOP=y, SAMPLES=y, SAMPLE_LIVEPATCH=y
(with a number of unrelated sparse warnings on symbols not being static)

Patch is against 4.20-rc6 (localversion-next is next-20181213)
