Well, you just used some function in some context which is not
relevant to
the normal operation. So adding that mask() is just paranoia for no
value.

A gentle reminder ping...
If ".free" callback is not relevant then I 'll remove it from exti domain.

I was not talking about the .free callback in general. I was talking about
the masking. But yes, if the thing is otherwise a NOOP, then you can spare
it completely.

Thanks,
