Subject: [PATCH 2/2] [media] blackfin-capture: Delete an error message for a
 failed memory allocation

From: Markus Elfring <elfring@...rs.sourceforge.net>

The script "checkpatch.pl" pointed information out like the following.

WARNING: Possible unnecessary 'out of memory' message

Thus remove such a statement here.
