Confirmed that the comparison is always redundant: g_free just calls free, but even the extra diagnostics that seem to touch g_free doesn't really touch it (it looks for it on lists, which it will never find a null pointer on...) and even if it does find a null pointer somehow, we don't dereference it (though I think it's impossible to find a null pointer).
