Description

On drivers/video/fb.ko there is a comment

 Nothing should be allocated at the end.

but there is no allocation in the trace, just kfree.

Actually the comment should mention something different including that memory may be freed without alloc.
Or may be the rule specification should be changed to catch the error at the kfree call point.
