There is a typo in the subject.  It should be "Staging" instead of
"taging:".

The txbuf chunk seems to have been dropped.  You're right that it needs
to be fixed as well.

        if (txbuflen > 0) {
                txbuf = devm_kzalloc(par->info->device, txbuflen, GFP_KERNEL);
                if (!txbuf)
-                        goto alloc_fail;
+			 goto err_info;
