If memory allocation for 'kbuf' succeed, cosa_write() doesn't have a
corresponding kfree() in exception handling. Thus add kfree() for this
function implementation.

Looks correct, thanks.

That said, COSA is an ancient ISA bus device designed in late 1990s,
I doubt anybody is still using it. I still do have one or two of these
cards myself, but no computer with ISA bus to use them.

Maybe we can move it out to staging or just remove it?
