[PATCH 4/6] ipack: ipoctal: fix missing allocation-failure check

[Johan Hovold <johan@kernel.org>]

Add the missing error handling when allocating the transmit buffer to
avoid dereferencing a NULL pointer in write() should the allocation
ever fail.

Fixes: ba4dc61fe8c5 ("Staging: ipack: add support for IP-OCTAL mezzanine board")
