But kobject_put() already checks for NULL, right? you just submitted
another batch about that in other area.

Not that I am totally against this patch, but when we do not need the extra
checks, a single jump target is ok too in my mind (extra benefit - there's
not going to be any chance of a mistake to where to jump to).
And when we have a single jump target, there's no supersmart naming
like free_this_and_that_and_that_other_thing_too.
