exfat_free() should call exfat_free_iocharset(), to prevent a leak
in case we fail after parsing iocharset= but before calling
get_tree_bdev().
Additionally, there's no point copying param->string in
exfat_parse_param() - just steal it, leaving NULL in param->string.
That's independent from the leak or fix thereof - it's simply
avoiding an extra copy.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
