Btw, the original code looks seems pretty awful.  "rar_handle" is
a kernel pointer that we get from user space.  It is a u32 type so
this won't work under a 64 bit OS.

These allocations get added to a list.  Maybe we should free them
all?  It's hard to say.  There is only one place that calls this
function, and it ignores the return value.
