Note: the IS_ERR check was fixed already in https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-kselftest/patch/Y0kt1aCTHO4r2CmL@kili/ That change has made its way into torvalds/master. So we could rebase this patch and reword it to talk just about the early kfree(). Re free memory early: It'll save us sizeof(struct string_stream_fragment) + sizeof(struct kunit_resource), i.e. 24 + 56 = 80 bytes (on UML/x86_64). So it's not much, but I guess it could help in edge cases. Daniel
