Subject: scsi: arcmsr: Simplify user_len checking
From: Borislav Petkov <bp@alien8.de>
commit 4bd173c30792791a6daca8c64793ec0a4ae8324f upstream.
Do the user_len check first and then the ver_addr allocation so that we
can save us the kfree() on the error path when user_len is >
ARCMSR_API_DATA_BUFLEN.
