net, sunrpc: suppress allocation warning in rpc_malloc()
rpc_malloc() allocates with GFP_NOWAIT without making any attempt at
reclaim so it easily fails when low on memory. This ends up spamming the
kernel log:
SLAB: Unable to allocate memory on node 0 (gfp=0x4000)
cache: kmalloc-8192, object size: 8192, order: 1
node 0: slabs: 207/207, objs: 207/207, free: 0

If the allocation fails, simply return NULL and avoid spamming the kernel
log.
