[PATCH v2] mtd: spi-nor: fix a memory leak bug

[Wenwen Wang <wenwen@xxxxxxxxxx>]

In spi_nor_parse_4bait(), 'dwords' is allocated through kmalloc(). However,
it is not deallocated in the following execution if spi_nor_read_sfdp()
fails, leading to a memory leak. To fix this issue, free 'dwords' before
returning the error.

Table")
