[PATCH 1/1] Properly check return values of kmalloc and vmbus_recvpacket

[Hank Janssen]

Correct ugly oversight, we need to check the return values of kmalloc
and vmbus_recvpacket and return if they fail. I also tightened up the
call to kmalloc. 

Thanks to Evgeniy Polyakov <zbr@xxxxxxxxxxx>  for pointing this out.
