This patch aims to fix the use-after-free read described in
https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?extid=a4387f5b6b799f6becbf

Changes devm_k*alloc to k*alloc which manually frees memory allocated by
raremono_device instead of leaving it to be automatically deallocated
when the USB interface calls it to be freed. The devices resources are
freed in usb_raremono_disconnect as well as freed when error conditions
occur in usb_raremono_probe.

This change is necessary due to the fact that when the USB device is
disconnected, it frees the raremono_device structure before doing the
necessary cleanup to remove references to the device, thus we get these
use-after-free errors.

I would like to thank Hans Verkuil for pointing me in the right
direction to fix this issue.
