USB HID: fix a possible NULL pointer dereference when we fail to allocate memory

If, in usb_hid_configure(), we fail to allocate storage for 'usbhid',
 "if (!(usbhid = kzalloc(sizeof(struct usbhid_device), GFP_KERNEL)))",
then we'll jump to the 'fail:' label where we have this code:
        usb_free_urb(usbhid->urbin);
        usb_free_urb(usbhid->urbout);
        usb_free_urb(usbhid->urbctrl);
Since we got here because we couldn't allocate storage for 'usbhid',
what we have here is a NULL pointer dereference - ouch...

This patch solves that little problem by adding a new
'fail_no_usbhid:' label after the problematic calls to
usb_free_urb() and jumps to that one instead, in the problem case.
