Probable MACRO_WILC_BUFFER should be MALLOC_WILC_BUFFER here.
take care of possible memory leaks and subsequent bugs when it was failing
after succeeding some allocations. This patch corrects this behavior.

There is really no need to print an error message here. kmalloc will
blurb enough info when it fails.
So these buffers are globals? So does this driver support multiple
devices, ie. how are these used when two wilc1000 supported devices are
present.
