Check if new space was actually allocated before freeing.
There will be no new space allocated, if mode != PropModeReplace and len == 0, or if mode is not one of the handled modes. This fixes freeing data that is still in use, leading to double frees and other memory corruption. Signed-off-by: Peter Hutterer <peter.hutterer@who-t.net>
