Btw, the original code looks seems pretty awful.  "rar_handle" is
a kernel pointer that we get from user space.  It is a u32 type so
this won't work under a 64 bit OS.

These allocations get added to a list.  Maybe we should free them
all?  It's hard to say.  There is only one place that calls this
function, and it ignores the return value.

regards,
dan carpenter

The original code set "str_info->decode_ibuf" to NULL so the kfree() is
no-op.
