I see, but I don't know which tool was used, so those seem like random
number to me. I would just remove this part of your commit message, but
if you want to keep it, you need to at least mention what's the tool.

If you free immediately after the while loop, then you would risk a use
after free here:

	swap(adev->reset_dump_reg_list, tmp);

So this isn't the solution either.
