I'd appreciate if you could be a tad more verbose in commit messages.
In general a commit message should answer two questions: What and why.
This commit message only answers the former question.

NULL pointer checks before free() are unnecessary, but very common.
A few words that explain why it is safe to remove them would enlighten
the people that come after you, many of which possibly won't know that
it is safe to remove those checks.
