This macro verifies if the pointer is NULL (the allocation failed) or the size is 0 (the allocation was not performed AFAIU). This special value can be passed to `kfree()`. On FreeBSD, our `malloc(9)` functions don't return a special value for 0-size allocations. Therefore we can simply compare the result against NULL.
