If the first 'iobuf = kmalloc(mtd->erasesize, GFP_KERNEL);' fails then
you jump to the out label where you call 5 kfree() and then return the
error.

It would be much better just to return the error immediately in this
case and add one label for each allocation error, so that it only
kfree the previous successful allocations.
