That doesn't mean that it's actually code that's clearer to read.  I would say
that it's actually less clear.  In a bunch of places, you've done something
like:

-       e = kmalloc(...);
-       if (!e)
+       if (__mem_to_flex_dup(&e, ...))

The problem is that, to me at least, it looks like:

-       e = kmalloc(...);
-       if (kmalloc failed)
+       if (__mem_to_flex_dup(&e, ...) succeeded)
