Add the check for the return value of dma_alloc_coherent in order to
avoid NULL pointer dereference.
This flaw was found using an experimental static analysis tool we are
developing, APP-Miner, which has not been disclosed.
The allyesconfig build using GCC 9.3.0 shows no new warning. As we
don't have a UDC device to test with, no runtime testing was able to
be performed.

Changelog:
v2 -> v3:
1. Add information of finding tool and tests to commit message.
v1 -> v2:
1. Add "goto err;" when allocation fails.
