Hmm, but what happens if the filter already has its preds initialized
by a previous filter?

The first thing that init_preds() does is:

filter = call->filter = kzalloc(sizeof(*filter), GFP_KERNEL);

That looks like a memory leak.

Whereas this one has a check:
if (!call->filter)
alloc...

Other than the above doubts, that looks good.
