With that patch description, the Fixes tag is wrong...but (see below)

This part looks good

This part below is not an equivalent replacement. In fact you are fixing a bug here...

	.... here we would need to kfree kapqns, but we do not. So this is
a memory leak. Isnt it?

So indeed this is fixing something. But please rework your the patch 
description accordingly.
