Since we don't care about the order in which kobjects are put, I'd write it in this way, which I think looks cleaner:

static void cma_sysfs_cleanup(struct kobject *cma_kobj_root)
{
	struct cma *cma = cma_areas;
	unsigned int i;

	for (i = 0; i < cma_area_count; i++, cma++) {
		if (!cma->kobj)
			break;

		kobject_put(&cma->kobj->kobj);
	}

	kobject_put(cma_kobj_root);
}

static int __init cma_sysfs_init(void)
{
	struct kobject *cma_kobj_root;
	unsigned int i;

	cma_kobj_root = kobject_create_and_add("cma", mm_kobj);
	if (!cma_kobj_root)
		return -ENOMEM;

	for (i = 0; i < cma_area_count; i++) {
		struct cma_kobject *cma_kobj;
		struct cma *cma;
		int err;

		cma_kobj = kzalloc(sizeof(*cma_kobj), GFP_KERNEL);
		if (!cma_kobj) {
			cma_sysfs_cleanup(cma_kobj_root);
			return -ENOMEM;
		}

		cma = &cma_areas[i];
		cma->kobj = cma_kobj;
		cma_kobj->cma = cma;
		err = kobject_init_and_add(&cma_kobj->kobj, &cma_ktype,
					   cma_kobj_root, "%s", cma->name);
		if (err) {
			cma_sysfs_cleanup(cma_kobj_root);
			return err;
		}
	}

	return 0;
}
subsys_initcall(cma_sysfs_init);
