From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> The current exit path when tmp fails to be allocated is via the fail label which frees tfm2 which has not yet been allocated, which is problematic since tfm2 is not initialized and is a garbage pointer. Fix this by exiting directly to the return at the end of the function and hence avoiding the freeing of tfm2.
