Subject: [PATCH] UWB: Return UWB_RSV_ALLOC_NOT_FOUND rather than crashing on
 NULL dereference if kzalloc fails

Crashing on a null pointer deref is never a nice thing to do. It seems
to me that it's better to simply return UWB_RSV_ALLOC_NOT_FOUND if
kzalloc() fails in uwb_rsv_find_best_allocation().
