This can still be misinterpreted imho; maybe lets simplify, for example:

   [bpf-next] xdp: avoid unnecessary second call to kfree

   For the case when in xdp_umem_pin_pages() the call to pin_user_pages()
   wasn't able to pin all the requested number of pages in memory (but some)
   then we error out by cleaning up the ones that got pinned through a call
   to xdp_umem_unpin_pages() and later on we free kfree(umem->pgs) itself.

   This is unneeded since xdp_umem_unpin_pages() itself already does the
   kfree(umem->pgs) internally with subsequent setting umem->pgs to NULL, so
   that in xdp_umem_pin_pages() the second kfree(umem->pgs) becomes entirely
   unnecessary for this case. Therefore, clean the error handling up.

Why do we need a Fixes tag here? It's a _cleanup_, not a bug/fix technically.

While at it, maybe we could also simplify the if (npgs != umem->npgs) a bit to
get rid of the indent, something like:

In the function xdp_umem_pin_pages, if npgs != umem->npgs and
npgs >= 0, the function xdp_umem_unpin_pages is called. In this
function, kfree is called to handle umem->pgs, and then in the
function xdp_umem_pin_pages, kfree is called again to handle
umem->pgs. Eventually, to umem->pgs, kfree is called twice.

Since umem->pgs is set to NULL after the first kfree, the second
kfree would not trigger call trace.

The original patch is just to make some cleanups. Please do not make
it so complicated.
If you like it, please file an official patch for code review.
