Uninitialized pointers with `__free` attribute can cause undefined
behavior as the memory assigned randomly to the pointer is freed
automatically when the pointer goes out of scope.

It is better to initialize and assign pointers with `__free` attribute
in one statement to ensure proper scope-based cleanup
