I don't see the problem in calling kfree on null things (especially on error path). The only bad pattern I see here is that it relies on implicit knowledge that aname is null before the call (which is true because v9fs_session_init is only called immediately after kzalloc); is that what your coccinelle script was checking for? Anyway, as far as I'm concerned this is more churn than it's worth, but I'll defer to Eric if he wants to take it. Thanks, -- Dominique
