Maybe my explanation wasn't quite clear! What I meant was that since
we're no longer using pfile->done, turn that ->done into a ->needs_kfree
or something, and make that a bool. So basically the same patch as the
one you posted, just making that naming (and type) change as well.

Does that help? Would prefer if you sent a patch, you already did
99% of the hard work.
