When I have cases like this, where 2 mallocs are necessary I typically do it like this:

	const char *bus_id;

	...

	} else {
		acpi_device_bus_id = kzalloc(sizeof(*acpi_device_bus_id),
					     GFP_KERNEL);
		bus_id = kstrdup_const(acpi_device_hid(device), GFP_KERNEL);
		if (!acpi_device_bus_id || !bus_id) {
			kfree(acpi_device_bus_id);
			kfree(bus_id);
			result = -ENOMEM;
			goto err_unlock;
		}
		acpi_device_bus_id->bus_id = bus_id;
		list_add_tail(&acpi_device_bus_id->node, &acpi_bus_id_list);
	}

	...

So that there is only one if / 1 error-handling path for both mallocs.
I personally find this a bit cleaner.

Either way, with or without this change, the patch looks good to me:
