From: Ahmad Fatoum <[email protected]>
When we use hush to set the same nv.var twice to the empty string:
$ nv.user=
$ nv.user=
nv_set is called twice with a NULL val argument leading
to a double free and accompanied memory corruption.
Reorder the code, so p->value is freed just once.
Fixes: fa4c41ba60af ("nvvar: when setting a nvvar to NULL just free the
content")
