This makes the code simpler as explicit freeing is not needed.

No problem.

I have around 50 or so of those patches still pending in my -staging tree,
because I did not get an Acked-by or Reviewed-by.

Given that, your patch is fine ... it gives me a second Signed-off, so I can
push it forward.

Thanks,
Guenter

Thanks.

I have also submitted another patch [1]. I referred to the staging
tree pointed to by Jean and found that this patch was missing in your
tree.
Please feel free to carry it in your series if you find it ok.
