Looks like a nice reduction to me!

As p9_client_destroy() is doing a bit more than current code, I would probably 
additionally do s/kmalloc/kzmalloc/ at the start of the function, which would 
add more safety & reduction.

Are you sure that would resolve that (other) syzbot report? I just had a 
glimpse at it yet, but I don't see this list iteration portion being involved 
in the backtrace provided by the report, is it?
