This is redundant with patch code submitted 2013/01/22.  See here:
     http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-input/msg29280.html

and in any case, Dmitry has submitted a more thorough tidy up here:
     http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-input/msg29323.html
Neither of these two patches resolve the issue here, which is that you
should not directly free the memory allocated by devm_kzalloc() in
rmi_f01_alloc_memory().
