Yes, I tried to use "... when != E = E1 when != &E" and results were bad.
Now, I've tried forall and when strict. Here are examples:

// forall added
// Works well, suitable for v2. One additional catch in w1 driver.
@r depends on !patch && !(file in "lib/test_kasan.c") && !(file in "mm/slab_common.c") forall@
expression *E; // pointer. Results are equal as if we use E.
position p;
@@

* memset(E, 0, ...);
  ... when != E // Is it enough to match &E, E = E1?
* kfree(E)@p;

//no forall, when strict
//results are bad, too many false positives
@r depends on !patch && !(file in "lib/test_kasan.c") && !(file in "mm/slab_common.c")@
expression *E;
position p;
@@

* memset(E, 0, ...);
  ... when != E // E is not enough here
      when strict
* kfree(E)@p;

I guess that the difference is that "forall" requires that whole pattern should occur on
every path, "when strict" states that kfree should be called on every path after memset.
This results in missed uses of E in loops and under conditions. How can I state in this
case that E should not occur at all (in all paths) in between memset, kfree even as a
subexpression?

// Doesn't work well
  ... when != E
      when != if (...) { ... E ... }
      when != for(...;...;...) { ... E ... }
