prevent potential memleak.

You should expand on this a bit more. The ccp_dm_free() function is normally called to free that memory, but many of the call spots don't expect to have to call ccp_dm_free() on an error return from ccp_init_dm_workarea(). Because of that, the memory is freed in ccp_init_dm_workarea().

So a more detailed commit message about why this change is needed should be provided.

If future changes should result in ccp_dm_free() being called on an error returned from ccp_init_dm_workarea(), you should add:

			wa->address = NULL;

Thanks,
