[PATCH 2/2] Eliminate double kfree

[Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]

From: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>

The variable report is only non-NULL and non-freed in a small region of
code, so it should only be freed in error handling code that comes from
that region.

This was found using the following semantic match.
