Thanks for letting me know. I send out an updated patch removing the redundant check. But I am wondering if we should leave it in for safety's sake. Is having a info message like this from smatch a problem?

There is no safety issue here. kfree() will always accept NULL

It's not a problem. We just send you the one email is all.
