No patch has been proposed yet, only the script and its output has been 
sent on @kernel-janitor.

There was also a discussion about the need to update the corresponding 
kfree() into bitmap_free() to keep consistency.
Doing it with coccinelle could be challenging.

devm_ function are not impacted, but for the others, it can be more 
tricky and would likely need manual update.
