In case allocation via usb_alloc_coherent() fails in ims_pcu_buffers_alloc(),
the function jumps to the exit path without initializing local variable
'error' that is used as return value. Detected by Coverity - CID 1016531.

This is an allocation function and all currently coded error scenarios
result in -ENOMEM. Thus it would be possible to eliminate 'error' at all and
always return -ENOMEM in the error path.
Compile tested. Applies against branch next in tree
