Add a proper NULL check for the kmalloc() return value in syslog_show().
If memory allocation fails, syslog would be NULL and passing it to
misc_syslog() could lead to a NULL pointer dereference.

Add a proper NULL check for the kmalloc() return value in syslog_show().
If memory allocation fails, syslog would be NULL and passing it to
misc_syslog() could lead to a NULL pointer dereference.
