You still need to free tmp allocation if qib_eeprom_write failed and
this is your bail_tmp.

341 tmp = kmalloc(count, GFP_KERNEL);
342 if (!tmp) {
343 ret = -ENOMEM;
344 goto bail;
345 }
346
347 if (copy_from_user(tmp, buf, count)) {
348 ret = -EFAULT;
349 goto bail_tmp;
350 }
351
352 dd = private2dd(file);
353 if (qib_eeprom_write(dd, pos, tmp, count)) {
354 ret = -ENXIO;
355 qib_dev_err(dd, "failed to write to flash\n");
356 goto bail_tmp;
357 }
