We are immediately exiting the test in do_test_cow_in_parent() exit(fn(mem, size, &comm_pipes));
Your changes make the code unnecessarily more complicated to read, so I'm not in favor of this one to make some checker tool happy.
It is indeed exiting the process. After the process exits, the memory will be reclaimed naturally.
As code in the kernel branch, it will be used by beginners, such as me, for learning. Modifications are recommended.
Regarding the readability of the code, is the following modification better than before?
