[PATCH RESEND 1/2] mtd: bcm47: convert kzalloc to avoid invalid access

From: Libo Chen
Date: Wed May 29 2013 - 22:24:57 EST



mtd is just member of bcm47xxsflash, so we should free bcm47xxsflash not its member.
So I use devm_kazlloc instead of kazlloc to avoid it.

* Changelog:
convert to devm_kzalloc
