I suggest to improve the provided information. How do you think about a wording variant like the following?
The function “msm_gpu_crashstate_capture” can be called multiple times. The members “comm”, “cmd” and “bos” of the data structure “msm_gpu_state” are reassigned with pointers according to dynamic memory allocations if the preprocessor symbol “CONFIG_DEV_COREDUMP” was defined. But the function “kfree” was not called for them before.
Thus add missing actions. * Release previous objects. * Use further null pointer checks. * Complete the corresponding exception handling.
Would you like to add the tag “Fixes” to the commit message? https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst?id=b791d1bdf9212d944d749a5c7ff6febdba241771#n183

Will there be a need to reconsider the indentation for function call parameters in such source files? https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/Documentation/process/coding-style.rst?id=b791d1bdf9212d944d749a5c7ff6febdba241771#n93
