[PATCH 1/1] hv: Use only one receive buffer per channel and kmalloc on initialize

[Hank Janssen]

Correct issue with not checking kmalloc return value.
This fix now only uses one receive buffer for all hv_utils 
channels, and will do only one kmalloc on init and will return
with a -ENOMEM if kmalloc fails on initialize.

Thanks to Evgeniy Polyakov <zbr@xxxxxxxxxxx> for pointing this out.
And thanks to Jesper Juhl <jj@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> and Ky Srinivasan 
<ksrinivasan@xxxxxxxxxx> for suggesting a better implementation of
my original patch.
