If fw_csr_string() returns -ENOENT, then "name" is uninitialized. So then the "strlen(model_names[i]) <= name_len" is true because strlen() is unsigned and -ENOENT is type promoted to a very high positive value. Then the "strncmp(name, model_names[i], name_len)" uses uninitialized data because "name" is uninitialized.
This causes memory leak, AFAICT.

Again, this is not how to submit patches, and you know this.
