[Intel-gfx] [PATCH i-g-t 5/8] tests/i915/gem_exec_capture: Check for memory allocation failure

From: John Harrison <John.C.Harrison at Intel.com>

The sysfs file read helper does not actually report any errors if a
realloc fails. It just silently returns a 'valid' but truncated
buffer. This then leads to the decode of the buffer failing in random
ways. So, add a check for ENOMEM being generated during the read.
