In `test_no_sockets` we don't expect any sockets, indeed
check_no_sockets() prints an error and exits if `sockets` list is
not empty, so free_sock_stat() call is unnecessary since it would
only be called when the `sockets` list is empty.
This was discovered by a strange warning printed by gcc v11.2.1:
In file included from ../../include/linux/list.h:7,
from vsock_diag_test.c:18:
vsock_diag_test.c: In function ‘test_no_sockets’:
../../include/linux/kernel.h:35:45: error: array subscript ‘struct vsock_stat[0]’ is partly outside array bound

It seems related to some compiler optimization and assumption
about the empty `sockets` list, since this warning is printed
only with -02 or -O3. Also removing `exit(1)` from
check_no_sockets() makes the warning disappear since in that
case free_sock_stat() can be reached also when the list is
not empty.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
