Would you be so kind as to actually acknowledge in some way the person
who found all the bugs in your first version of this patch? :-/

Perhaps it'd be clearer to use:

	local_rqfpr = kmalloc(...)
	local_rqfcr = kmalloc(...)
	if (!local_rqfpr || !local_rqfcr) {
		pr_err(...)
		ret = -ENOMEM;
		goto err;
	}

[...]

err:
	kfree(local_rqfpr);
	kfree(local_rqfcr);
	return ret;

Is the "local_" prefix useful?
It seems like visual noise to me.

I thought kfree should not call, when kmalloc is failed. Now I think
is fine, thanks, it is much clearer
