I guess [] implies above comment and thus comment can be dropped.

Reimplementation of memchr_inv() ?

Much better to read is

unsigned int i = lc->num_attrs;

while (i--) {
...
}

This casting is not good. What about BE 32-bit architecture?

Same comments as per above.

Casting u64 to unsigned long is not good.

Redundant?

kstrndup() ?

I prefer to see this split, but it's minor.

Perhaps tracepoint / event?
