3.16.7-ckt16 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: Sanidhya Kashyap <sanidhya.gatech at gmail.com>
commit ce657611baf902f14ae559ce4e0787ead6712067 upstream.
There is a possibility of nothing being allocated to the new_opts in
case of memory pressure, therefore return ENOMEM for such case.
