checking li->li_lksb.sb_lvbptr for NULL here is redundant. kfree() checks 
for NULL itself - kfree(0) is perfectly valid, so just do 
	kfree(li->li_lksb.sb_lvbptr);
	kfree(li);
and get rid if the  if (li->li_lksb.sb_lvbptr)  bit.

       superfluous bracket.

else should be on same line as bracket according to 
Documentation/CodingStyle
	if (foo) {

If you are always going to return zero, then why not just have the 
function return void instead?

return void? and what's the purpose of this function? seems silly to me to 
have a function that does nothing but return 0 ever.

should be "} else {" - there are more cases of this elsewhere, but I'm not 
going to point them all out.

	^^^^Why indent this comment with two extra spaces and not just a 
tab like the other ones?

Why the extra blank line between the if statement and the first statement 
inside the if?
