clang's static analyze reports a use-after-free in
__cil_expr_to_string(), when __cil_expr_to_string_helper() does not
modify its third parameter (variable s1 here) in this loop:

     for (curr = curr->next; curr; curr = curr->next) {
         __cil_expr_to_string_helper(curr, flavor, &s1);
         cil_asprintf(&c2, "%s %s", c1, s1);
         free(c1);
         free(s1);
         c1 = c2;
     }

Silence this warning by making sure s1 is always NULL at the beginning
of every iteration of the loop.
