IMHO, that's hard to digest.

Extract em_table_dup() and em_recalc_and_update() from
em_adjust_new_capacity(). Both functions will be later reused by the
'update EM due to chip binning' functionality.

There seems to be a subtle change in this patch. When em_compute_costs()
fails now em_table_free() is called. This wasn't the case before when
em_compute_costs() was directly called from em_adjust_new_capacity().
