This if is not needed. kvfree should be able to handle NULL pointers, 
and unconditionally setting the pointer to NULL afterwards is not a 
problem either. With that fixed, this commit is

However, I don't think this should be the final solution. My concern 
with this solution is, that you end up freeing and regenerating the 
user_pages arrays more frequently than necessary: On every command 
submission, even if there was no MMU notifier since the last command 
submission. I was hoping we could get back to a solution where we can 
maintain the same user_pages array across command submissions, since MMU 
notifiers are rare. That should reduce overhead from doing all thos page 
table walks in HMM on every command submissions when using userptrs.
