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.)
Yes, it's better. But if we now decide to fix all such things, it would be
huge series. May be too huge for 5.0..
So I decided to fix only real obvious problems now.
Hmm huge or not?
Ok, let's try with less restrictions:

If you want, I'll send series.
Are the cocci scripts run regularly by someone? E.g. as part of a pull
to master?
I'm afraid not. I have a plan in my mind, to make python checkcode, which will
work in pair with checkpatch somehow, and will work on workdir instead of
patch. It will simplify significantly adding different code checks, including
starting coccinelle scripts.
