The kfree() function was called in one case by
the mmc_spi_probe() function during error handling
even if the passed variable contained a null pointer.
This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.

* Thus return directly after a call of the function “kmalloc” failed
  at the beginning.

* Move an error code assignment into an if branch.

How is this one better?

I suggest to avoid a bit of redundant data processing also at this source code place.
