wmi: fix a memory leak in wmi_notify_debug 

When acpi_evaluate_object() is passed ACPI_ALLOCATE_BUFFER,
the caller must kfree the returned buffer if AE_OK is returned.

The callers of wmi_get_event_data() pass ACPI_ALLOCATE_BUFFER,
and thus must check its return value before accessing
or kfree() on the buffer.

This patch adds return value checking for wmi_get_event_data()
and adds a missing kfree(obj) in the end of wmi_notify_debug
