In case kmemdup fails, the fix returns -ENOMEM to avoid NULL

Hi Kangjie Lu,
Are you fixing any reported issue with this? If you looked further you
would see that this function is called in two places and the return
value is not checked there. So your patch is not changing anything.
Please sent a V2 addressing my comments below.
Thanks,
Arend
