[PATCH 4/5] ACPI, APEI, Fix error path for memory allocation

From: Huang Ying
Date: Sat Sep 18 2010 - 23:02:09 EST


In ERST debug/test support patch, a dynamic allocated buffer is
used. The may-failed memory allocation should be tried firstly before
free the previous buffer.

APEI resource management memory allocation related error path is fixed
too.
