Subject: [PATCH] Input: synaptics-rmi4 - Fix an unchecked out of memory error path

When extending the rmi_spi buffers, we must check that no out of memory
error occurs, otherwise we may access data above the currently allocated
memory.

Propagate the error code returned by 'rmi_spi_manage_pools()' instead.
