OK, but wouldn’t it be better hygiene to set it to NULL every time it is
freed?  (There is a second instance of error_report_err() in this
function.  I’m a bit worried we might introduce another local_err use
after that one at some point in the future, and forget to run the cocci
script then.)

Are the cocci scripts run regularly by someone?  E.g. as part of a pull
to master?
