I tried to review this code, but it's almost unreadable to me, due
to basic code structure mistakes like:

This contains 7 kfree()s of the same thing (!), 3 fput()s of the
same thing, replicated all over the place obscuring the real essence
of the code.

This should be restructured to move all the failure exception cases
into a clean out of line inverse teardown sequence with proper goto
labels. That way it will be 70% real code 30% teardown - not 10%
real code mixed into 90% teardown like above.

Also, whoever named a local variable with a type of
"struct cr_image_file *" as 'i' should be sent back to
coding primary school.

You really should not write new kernel code until you know, follow
and respect basic code cleanliness principles. I am not inserting
any more review feedback value into this code until it does not meet
_basic_ quality standards that make review efforts smooth and
efficient.

Oh, and then i saw this sequence:
