The function "kfree" was called in a few cases by
the hpsa_big_passthru_ioctl() function during error handling
even if the passed variable contained a null pointer.

* Adjust jump targets.

* Delete two initialisations and a check (for the local variable "buff")
  which became unnecessary with this refactoring.
