I've prepared a coccinelle script to highlight these mispairings in a function
a couple of days ago: https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/6/5/953
I've listed all the fixes in the commit message. 

Not so many mispairings actually, and most of them are harmless like:
kmalloc(E) -> kvfree(E)

However, coccinelle script can't detect cross-functions mispairings, i.e.
allocation in one function, free in another funtion.

Thanks,
Denis

I've prepared a coccinelle script to highlight these mispairings in a function
a couple of days ago: https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/6/5/953
I've listed all the fixes in the commit message. 

Not so many mispairings actually, and most of them are harmless like:
kmalloc(E) -> kvfree(E)

However, coccinelle script can't detect cross-functions mispairings, i.e.
allocation in one function, free in another funtion.

Thanks,
Denis
