In null_init, null_add_dev(dev) is called. In null_add_dev, it calls null_free_zoned_dev(dev) to free dev->zones via kvfree(dev->zones) in out_cleanup_zone branch and returns err. Then null_init accept the err code and then calls null_free_dev(dev). But in null_free_dev(dev), dev->zones is freed again by null_free_zoned_dev(). My patch set dev->zones to NULL in null_free_zoned_dev() after kvfree(dev->zones) is called, to avoid the double free.
