| 1595 | m_freem() lets you pass NULL, but this function does not. Is that deliberate? | |

| 1595 | Yes. I believe a good code should not call free(NULL). Of course we are obliged to support free(NULL) in userland and in kernel as well as some other freeing functions, e.g. m_freem(). I will provide a comment on top of m_freemp() that it doesn't support NULL argument. | |
