We don't really care, as the system is dead at this point anyway.

Why even have the check for NULL then? The kzalloc() is small enough
to the point where it litterally cannot fail.
This patch is already written, it's way less effort for us to apply it
than it is to debate its worth. I kind of feel like it's better to just
fix the bugs even when they don't affect real life. Otherwise it's a
constant debate with bugs if they're worth fixing.
This is a university group and they're looking for bugs to fix. I'm
like, "I'm drowning in resource leak warnings and I don't even look at
them any more because they're basically all trash that no one cares
about." So I was hoping to maybe clean up the trash a bit to the point
where we can start caring about the leaks.

Because else someone will submit a patch to add that check? ;-)

I still don't understand how it can be guaranteed that small allocations
never fail... "while (1) kmalloc(16, GFP_KERNEL);"

Fair enough.

i.e. will queue in renesas-devel for v6.4.
Perhaps we need a different mechanism to annotate error handling code
that cannot ever happen in a real product, so it can be thrown away by
the compiler, while still pleasing the static checkers? All these
checks and error handling code do affect kernel size. There are
Linux products running on SoCs with 8 MiB of internal SRAM.

I read an lwn article on it and I think I once looked it up to try
figure out how small the definition of "small" was and it was
surprisingly large... But I have no idea. I think maybe small atomic
allocations can fail and GFP_KERNEL allocations sleep forever? (These
guesses are worthless).

People sometimes call BUG_ON(!soc_dev_attr). It's sort of rare these
days. It would be easy to make a function which silences Smatch...
__system_is_dead();

BUG_ON() is also not cheap, space-wise (except if CONFIG_BUG=n).
