Staging: iio: introduce missing kfree

Error handling code following a kmalloc or kzalloc should free the
allocated data.

The semantic match that finds the problem is as follows:
(http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/)

// <smpl>
@r exists@
local idexpression x;
statement S;
expression E;
identifier f,f1,l;
position p1,p2;

x@p1 = \(kmalloc\|kzalloc\|kcalloc\)(...);

 f(...,x->f1,...)

 return \(0\|<+...x...+>\|ptr\);
