Currently there is an error return path that neglects to free the
allocation for lcb_context. Fix this by adding a new error free
exit path that kfree's lcb_context before returning. Use this new
kfree exit path in another exit error path that also kfree's the same
object, allowing a line of code to be removed.

Looks good.
