When addressing a bug like this, we would be looking for a minimal fix
for the current kernel cycle and then perhaps a more involved tidy
up as you have done here to be applied rather less urgently.

As such could your split this into the two line fix (just add the two
missing kfree(cb_buff->buffer.scan_mask) and separate more general rework.

I'm unconvinced the reworked version is clearer to follow though it is
a few lines shorter.  Feel free to try and persuade me but that is a
separate issue from the bug fix!
