[PATCH v3] mwifiex: replace kmalloc & memcpy sequence with kmemdup

[Bing Zhao <bzhao@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

From: Yogesh Ashok Powar <yogeshp@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Sequence of kmalloc/kzalloc and memcpy is replaced with
kmemdup.

v2: Fixing OOMs as alloc failures instead of dup failures
    as suggested by Joe Perches <joe@xxxxxxxxxxx>

v3: Removed non optimizing kmemdup block and replaced a kzalloc
    with kmalloc to avoid an extra memcpy.
