Hi Markus,

I'm not a DLM maintainer, but I've reviewed your patch set and ACK them.
They seem to fit the spirit of:

https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/v4.10/process/coding-style.html#allocating-memory

I've actually got a bunch of similar cleanups myself, but I don't think
there's any overlap.

Regards,
