I suggest to improve the provided information.
How do you think about a wording variant like the following?

   The function “msm_gpu_crashstate_capture” can be called multiple times.
   The members “comm”, “cmd” and “bos” of the data structure “msm_gpu_state”
   are reassigned with pointers according to dynamic memory allocations
   if the preprocessor symbol “CONFIG_DEV_COREDUMP” was defined.
   But the function “kfree” was not called for them before.

   Thus add missing actions.
   * Release previous objects.
   * Use further null pointer checks.
   * Complete the corresponding exception handling.


Would you like to add the tag “Fixes” to the commit message?

Will there be a need to reconsider the indentation for function call parameters
in such source files?
