From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Currently the allocation of a buffer is performed before a sanity check on
the required buffer size and if the buffer size is too large the error exit
return leaks the allocated buffer. Fix this by checking the size before
allocating.
Also, the same buffer is allocated again inside an if statement, causing
the first allocation to be leaked. Fix this by removing this second
redundant allocation.
