> Static analysis shows that once instance of rte_zmalloc is missing
> a return value check in the code. This is fixed by adding a return
> value check. The malloc call itself is moved to earlier in the function
> so that no work is done unless all memory allocation requests have
> succeeded - thereby removing the need for rollback on error.
