From: Colin Ian King <colin.king at canonical.com>
There are two error return paths that are not kfree'ing ep that
lead to memory leaks. Fix this by exiting on error via the
ext_out exit path that performs the necessary kfree.
Detected by CoverityScan, CID#1462747 ("Resource Leak")
Fixes: b83ea87958c5 ("mtd: nand: provide several helpers to do common NAND operations")
