kasprintf() returns a pointer to dynamically allocated memory

Changes in v3:
     - Remove rc initialization
     - Simply error paths by adding a new label 'fail_mem'
…

I became curious if you would like to simplify further source code places.
This function hasn't changed in years, so it's OK for now.

Would you like to add a blank line after such a statement?
Sure, I could do it in next patch.

Please compare with your subsequent suggestion.
