Subject: [PATCH] media: usb: dvb-usb-v2: check the return value of kstrdup()

Note: Compare with the last email, this one is using my full name.
kstrdup() returns NULL if some internal memory errors happen, it is
better to check the return value of it. Since the return type of
dvb_usbv2_disconnect() is void, so only raise the error info.
