Commit 7a4dfd6028499d6f1089c87aa779d686e15f9285

Simplify error path in config_set Many error paths freed their local data althought it is freed later on when the end of the function notices that there was an error. This can cause double frees and invalid memory access. Signed-off-by: Carlos Martín Nieto <cmn@elego.de>
