NACK, Coverity is wrong here.

The following lines in esxVI_LookupObjectContentByType and
esxVI_WaitForTaskCompletion thransfer ownership of the objects to
another one that will free them.

esxVI_PropertySpec_AppendToList(&propertyFilterSpec->propSet, propertySpec)
esxVI_ObjectSpec_AppendToList(&propertyFilterSpec->objectSet, objectSpec)

So there is no leak in the common case here. Yes there is a
possibility in a certain error path to leak them, but your patch
creates a double-free in the common case. I'll post a patch later on
to fix the possible leak in the special error path.
