So the unlock is now duplicated, with one copy moved before the free. The unlock label furthermore is no longer useful and is thus deleted. A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // @@ expression x,e; identifier f; iterator I; statement S; @@ *kfree(x); ... when != &x when != x = e when != I(x,...)
