I don't have any real world examples (hopefully) and I don't think it's
going to catch issues, as it's unlikely someone would write
krealloc(ptr, 0) instead of kfree().

It works for the most simple cases I can think of. Thanks a lot !

It will be difficult to shoehorn such construct in the dijunctions
added here.

Perhaps we could add a new cocci rules file that would translate such
call to krealloc() to kfree():

@@
expression e;
expression p;
identifier size;
@@
  size = 0
  ... when != size = e
-  krealloc(p,size)
+  kfree(p)


@@
expression p;
@@
-  krealloc(p, 0)
+  kfree(p)

But I'm not sure it worth it.
