Umm, this problem has long existed since my v1 :)
I might better re-think about patch order.

Will take care of it.

MeToo.

It seems that kimage_load_segment() requires this, but I'm not sure.

Right.
The reason why I left the code here was that we'd better locally clean up
all the stuff that were locally allocated if we trivially need to (and can)
do so.

As it's redundant, I will remove it.
