In the loop?! How does it work when loop goes second iteration and so on?

So, do we expect the chip_label be different between hogs? Ah, seems so
as it covers _all_ hogs in the system.

Even if the __free() scope works fine, I think this algorithm should be
revisited to make sure we have iterating only on hogs of the same chip.
Hence, the hogs should be placed into tree structure with a label being
the key in it.

Similar wish here, perhaps maple tree can be utilized in the future for both of them.
