I don't think this kfree is right, "struct ieee802154_llsec_key_entry"
is declared as "non pointer" in "struct mac802154_llsec_key". The
memory that is part of "struct ieee802154_llsec_key_entry" should be
freed when llsec_key_put(), llsec_key_release() hits.

Or is there something I am missing here?

Thanks.

Otherwise the patch looks correct to me.
