In esd_usb_start() kfree() is called with the msg variable even if the
allocation of *msg failed.

But kfree() works fine with NULL pointers, have you seen any real issues
with this code?

Hello Vadim,

I've not seen real problems with this code. And when I posted the patch I
knew that kfree() can cope with NULL pointers. But in any case calling a
*free() function with a NULL pointer sends shivers over my spine and I
want to avoid to stumble over this again and again.

Best regards,
