Fix a memory leak in gpi_peripheral_config() where the original memory
pointed to by gchan->config could be lost if krealloc() fails.

The issue occurs when:
1. gchan->config points to previously allocated memory
2. krealloc() fails and returns NULL
3. The function directly assigns NULL to gchan->config, losing the
   reference to the original memory
4. The original memory becomes unreachable and cannot be freed

Fix this by using a temporary variable to hold the krealloc() result
and only updating gchan->config when the allocation succeeds.

Found via static analysis and code review.
