Remove checking for NULL before g_free()
Build Information:
--
g_free() is NULL safe, so we don't need check against it.
Btw. glib *alloc()'s with len > 0, can't return NULL (on oom it aborts program)
however sometimes I can see in code:
if ((bar = g_realloc(bar, foolen)) == NULL)
return -1;
should it be replaced by simply:
bar = g_realloc(bar, foolen);
(when foolen > 0)
or by g_try_realloc()?

I see there's policy we should run as long as possibly when we got oom...
