A null pointer would be passed to a call of the function "kfree" directly
after a call of the function "kcalloc" failed at one place.
Pass the data structure member "urb" instead for which memory
was allocated before (so that this resource will be properly cleaned up).

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.

Fixes: d571b592c6206d33731f41aa710fa0f69ac8611b ("media: em28xx: don't use coherent buffer for DMA transfers")
