Series bpf/verifier: Use kmalloc_size_roundup() to match ksize() usage | expand

If an error (NULL) is returned by krealloc(), callers of realloc_array()
were setting their allocation pointers to NULL, but on error krealloc()
does not touch the original allocation. This would result in a memory
resource leak. Instead, free the old allocation on the error handling
path.

Fyi, I took this fix into bpf tree and improved commit log a bit with the
one from Zhengchao [0] given yours came in first. Fixes tag would have been
nice, I added the c69431aab67a to the commit message while applying.
