x86: fix dmi_alloc() to not advance alloc index in case of
dmi_alloc() for CONFIG_X86_64 is defined to allocate from a static array and it maintains a allocation index which is advanced each time allocation is attempted - it gets incremented even if an allocation fails thereby depriving any future request that may be small enough to be satisfied from the array. Fix this by first testing if allocation is going to be possible and incrementing alloc index only then.
