[PATCH] Fix svc_run


Hi!

svc_run segfaults if malloc fails.
BZ#3559 contains a simple patch (just perror and return if that fails),
this is a little bit larger patch which avoids dumb my_pollfd allocation and
freeing in every single svc_run loop iteration if svc_max_pollfd hasn't
changed.

	[BZ #3559]
	* sunrpc/svc_run.c (svc_run): Fail instead of segfaulting if
	malloc crashed.  Don't allocate memory unnecessarily in each
	loop.
