Error handling code following a kmalloc should free the allocated data.

The semantic match that finds the problem is as follows:
(http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/)

// <smpl>
@r exists@
local idexpression x;
statement S;
expression E;
identifier f,l;
position p1,p2;
expression *ptr != NULL;
@@

(
if (([EMAIL PROTECTED] = \(kmalloc\|kzalloc\|kcalloc\)(...)) == NULL) S
|
[EMAIL PROTECTED] = \(kmalloc\|kzalloc\|kcalloc\)(...);
..
if (x == NULL) S
)
<... when != x
     when != if (...) { <+...x...+> }
x->f = E
..>
(
 return \(0\|<+...x...+>\|ptr\);
|
 [EMAIL PROTECTED] ...;
)

@script:python@
p1 << r.p1;
p2 << r.p2;
@@

print "* file: %s kmalloc %s return %s" % (p1[0].file,p1[0].line,p2[0].line)
// </smpl>

In personal conversations with technical people, I call myself a hacker. But
when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
