In rtw_os_xmit_resource_alloc(), if usb_alloc_urb() fails, then the
memory `pxmitbuf_pallocated_buf` which is allocated by kzalloc() is not
properly released before returning.
So this patch add kfree() on the above error path to release it. As there
is no proper device to test with, no runtime testing was performed.
