The kzalloc() in halmac_parse_psd_data_88xx() can fail and return NULL
so check the psd_set->data after allocation and if allocation failed
return HALMAC_CMD_PROCESS_ERROR.

Problem was located with an experimental coccinelle script

Patch was compile tested with: x86_64_defconfig + STAGING=y,
R8822BE=m
(with a smatch error that looks like a false-positive

  CHECK   drivers/staging/rtlwifi/halmac/halmac_88xx/halmac_func_88xx.c
drivers/staging/rtlwifi/halmac/halmac_88xx/halmac_func_88xx.c:624 
halmac_func_write_logical_efuse_88xx() error: uninitialized symbol 
'pg_efuse_header2'.
  CC [M]  drivers/staging/rtlwifi/halmac/halmac_88xx/halmac_func_88xx.o

as the initialization of pg_efuse_header2 is under the same if condition (line 
592) as the
use at line 624 it is initialized)

Patch is agaisnt 5.0-rc6 (localversion-next is next-20190215)
