This function returns NULL on failure so lets do that if kzalloc()
fails. There is a separate problem that the caller for this function
doesn't check for errors...

I'd need to reformat this one to get it to apply... :/ It doesn't
actually fix the bug so it's not worth it.

I'll look at the surrounding code and see what makes sense there. Having
an error leg for allocation failures is a useful thing.
