    xfrm: Fix error reporting in xfrm_state_construct.
    
    [ Upstream commit 6fd06963fa74197103cdbb4b494763127b3f2f34 ]
    
    When memory allocation for XFRMA_ENCAP or XFRMA_COADDR fails,
    the error will not be reported because the -ENOMEM assignment
    to the err variable is overwritten before. Fix this by moving
    these two in front of the function so that memory allocation
    failures will be reported.
