It's much more common to split this into multiple statements like

		component_info = kmalloc(sizeof(*component_info), GFP_KERNEL);
		if (!component_info)
			continue;

but the continue in a loop with a known alloc failure
seems silly as the next alloc is also extremely likely
to fail as well.

btw: Are you actually using this code?

If not, perhaps it's better to send cleanup only patches
for files in drivers/staging as practice instead.
