    Hm, that 0 corresponds to 'flags' parameter which is not used. I wonder if 
that was intentional...

    Now this comment is kinda duplicate... :-)

    I have asked to adjust the message a bit as we now have 2 alternate calls 
that can fail...

    That looks much better, thanks.

    Although I'd have avoided the empty line...

    That function generally avoids error messages, no? Although all errors are 
-ENOMEM type and that's supposed to cause kernel to loudly curse anyway... 
Well, let it be if you want.
