fix possible NULL deref on low memory condition in capidrv.c::send_message()
If we fail to allocate an skb in drivers/isdn/capi/capidrv.c::send_message(), then we'll end up dereferencing a NULL pointer. Since out of memory conditions are not unheard of, I believe it is better to print a error message and just return rather than bring down the whole kernel. Sure, doing this may upset some application, but that's still better than crashing the whole system.
