library: tweak new interface code and improve comments

With a little help from smatch, this commit eliminates
some inappropriate code. Also some programmer comments
were (barely) improved (i hope) in some small measure.

Reference(s):
smatch: 406 procps_meminfo_chain_fill() warn: variable dereferenced before check 'chain' (see line 403)
