With the current code, in case all NULLs are passed in id_{0,1,2}, the kernel will first print out a WARNING and then have an oops because id_2 gets dereferenced anyway. Note that WARN_ON() is also considered harmful by Greg Kroah- Hartman since it causes the Android kernels to panic as they get booted with the panic_on_warn option.
