The null check on pointer sess and the subsequent call is redundant
as sess is null on all the the paths that lead to the out_term2 label.
Hence the null check and the call can be removed. Also remove the
redundant setting of sess to NULL as this is not required now.

Dan Carpenter for spotting this.
