commit 1cfd8956437f842836e8a066b40d1ec2fc01f13e upstream.
In cm_write(), if the 'buf' is allocated memory but not fully consumed,
it is possible to reallocate the buffer without freeing it by passing
'*ppos' as 0 on a subsequent call.
Add an explicit kfree() before kzalloc() to prevent the possible memory
leak.

commit e483bb9a991bdae29a0caa4b3a6d002c968f94aa upstream.
In cm_write(), buf is always freed when reaching the end of the
function. If the requested count is less than table.length, the
allocated buffer will be freed but subsequent calls to cm_write() will
still try to access it.
Remove the unconditional kfree(buf) at the end of the function and
set the buf to NULL in the -EINVAL error path to match the rest of
function.
