devm_*() family of functions purpose is managing memory attached to a
device. So in general it should only be used for allocations that should
last for the whole lifecycle of the device. This is not the case for
acpi_nfit_init_interleave_set(). There are two allocations that are only
used locally in this function.
Fix this by switching from devm_kcalloc() to kcalloc(), and adding
modern scope based rollback. This is similar to C++ RAII and is
preferred way for handling local memory allocations.

v2:
- removed first commit from the patchset, as the commit couldn't
be marked as a fix
- squashed those commits together, since the second one were
mostly overwriting the previous one
