platform/x86: wmi: Do not mix pages and kmalloc
The probe handler_data was being allocated with __get_free_pages() for no reason I could find. The error path was using kfree(). Since other things are happily using kmalloc() in the probe path, switch to kmalloc() entirely. This fixes the error path mismatch and will avoid issues with CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY_PAGESPAN=y.
