krealloc() must not be used against devm_*() allocated memory regions: - if a bigger memory is to be allocated, krealloc() and __krealloc() could return a different pointer than the one given to them, creating a memory region which is not managed, thus it will not be automatically released on device removal. - if a bigger memory is to be allocated, krealloc() could kfree() the managed memory region which is passed to it. The old pointer is left registered as a resource for the device. On device removal, this dangling pointer will be used and an unrelated memory region could be released. - if the requested size is equal to 0, krealloc() can also just behave like kfree(). Here too, the old pointer is kept associated with the device. On device removal, this invalid pointer will be used and an unrelated memory region could be released. For all these reasons, krealloc() must not be used on a pointer returned by devm_*() functions.

/// Find uses of standard freeing functons on values allocated using devm_
