in original codes, "kmalloc(sizeof *alloc, GFP_KERNEL);" is not freed.
better we define a temp size_t size
kstrtoul_from_user(buf, count, 0, &size);
...
if (!size)
return -EINVAL;
if (size > ~(size_t)0 / SZ_1K)
return -EOVERFLOW;
alloc = kmalloc(sizeof *alloc, GFP_KERNEL);
if (!alloc)
return -ENOMEM;
alloc->size = size;
