There is no reason to maintain the list structure while freeing the
debug elements.  Aside from the redundant pointer manipulations, it is
also inefficient from a locality-of-reference viewpoint, since they are
visited in a random order (wrt.  the order they were allocated).
Furthermore, if we jumped to exit: after detecting list corruption, it
is actually dangerous.

So just free the elements in the order they were allocated, using the
backing array elts.  Allocate that using kcalloc(), so that if
allocation of one of the debug element fails, we just end up calling
kfree(NULL) for the trailing elements.

Minor details: Use sizeof(*elts) instead of sizeof(void *), and return
err immediately when allocation of elts fails, to avoid introducing
another label just before the final return statement.
