A few lines above, ar is allocated inside the 'if (aux_size)' block.
If aux_size is falsy, isn't it possible that ar will be NULL hence
we should have 'if (ar) kfree(ar);'?
We need to initialize ar to NULL on that case. And Passing a NULL
pointer to kfree is safe, So NULL check before kfree() is not needed.
Yes, ar should be initialized to NULL to avoid the case of  aux_size will be false.
Since kfree(NULL) is safe.
Should I  send another patch for this?

Best regards!
Thanks.
