The rule is to be able to get idea what failed without recompiling kernel.
If you think you can point to failed allocation with your changes, then
you might be able to convice Andrew your change is an improvement.

So?

I would prefer you to look at code as a whole, not as an isolated set
of lines which can be changes to shut up some random warning obtained
from code analysis tool.

Behold, here we saved over 100 bytes just by minor clean up. Patch
is a mess, should be probably polished and splitted, but you'll get
an idea. That said, we saved more than by deleting one error message
and if you can prove we will not loose information _what_ failed
with your patch, we can save even more.
