chardev: Switch to guard(mutex) and __free(kfree)
Instead of using the 'goto label; mutex_unlock()' pattern use 'guard(mutex)' which will release the mutex when it goes out of scope. Use the __free(kfree) cleanup to replace instances of manually calling kfree(). Also make some code path simplifications that this allows.
