Now if job_data == NULL, we dereference a NULL pointer here.

In general I'm not a fan of relying on kfree() etc. being a no-op on 
NULL pointers, since doing so gets rid of visual hints on code paths 
indicating the "liveness" of pointer variables.

However I'll let Thierry/other maintainers decide according to their 
preferences.

Thanks,
