From: Lars Ellenberg <lars@xxxxxxxxxx> If for some reason glusterd_get_brick_root() fails, it frees the gf_strdup'ed *mount_point in its own error path, and returns -1. Unfortunately it already had assigned that pointer value to the output argument, the caller function glusterd_add_brick_detail() sees a non-NULL pointer, and free() again: segfault. Could be fixed with a one-liner (*mount_point = NULL) in the error path, but I think glusterd_get_brick_root() should only assign to the output argument once all checks passed, so I use a local temporary pointer, which increases the patch a bit.
