It is not necessary to have all these different statement labels. You
can simply have "fail:" clear all three pointers.

I don't think so. It is not necessary to clean all three pointers if
some of them aren't kbuf. I think it may be better to keep their own
pointers.

If the pointers aren't set to a region inside kbuf then they are
meaningless. There is no reason to keep the old values. It is better
to avoid multiple unnecessary statement labels.
