There are probably better places to spend your time!
If you want 'security' for kmalloc() then:
#define KMALLOC_TYPE(flags) (type *)kmalloc(sizeof (type), flags)
#define KMALLOC(ptr, flags) *(ptr) = KMALLOC_TYPE(typeof *(ptr), flags)
and change:
ptr = kmalloc(sizeof *ptr, flags);
to:
KMALLOC(&ptr, flags);
But it is all churn for churn's sake.
