I went through most of BAD_FREE reports yesterday and in many cases it was
mmap + munmap with some offset, which coverity doesn't like.

>From what I have read, it should be possible to annotate code to make coverity
stop complaining. For example by adding following:
  /* coverity[EVENT_TAG_NAME] */

I'm not exactly clear where to get "event tag names" yet, as these seem to be
different from error names that appear in *.err logs.

Before I dig deeper into this, would anyone be opposed if we start adding
such annotation to LTP source?

Regards,
Jan
