The second warning message and SIGSEGV stem from the issue expressed in the
first warning message, and are the result of ignoring the EVENT_ERROR type
returned back through the call chain.

Dealing with the first warning message is beyond the scope of this patch. But
the second warning is addressed by this patch's first hunk. And the SIGSEGV is
eliminated by its second hunk.

I think you'd better put the error check on separate lines. Other
than that look good to me.

Okay. I've posted a v2. Consider v1 NAK'd.

And thank you Namhyung for reviewing this patch!



Thanks,
