Commit in Fixes turned a BUG() into a "normal" memory allocation failure.
While at it, it introduced a memory leak.
So fix it.
Also update the comment on top of the function to reflect what has been
change by the commit in Fixes.
Fixes: 40e986c99624 ("media: common: saa7146: replace BUG_ON by WARN_ON")
