Two functions, flock syscall and locks_remove_flock(), call flock_make_lock(). It allocates struct file_lock from slab cache if its argument fl is NULL. When we call flock syscall, we pass NULL to allocate memory for struct file_lock. However, we always free it at the end by locks_free_lock(). We need not allocate it and instead should use a local variable as locks_remove_flock() does. Also, the validation for flock_translate_cmd() is not necessary for locks_remove_flock(). So we move the part to flock syscall and make flock_make_lock() return nothing.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
