subject: NIM: khcint_remove_space() frees memory too soon
component: windows

The Network Identity Manager Configuration Provider module keeps track
of the application and plug-in configuration settings organized into
configuration spaces.  The state of each configuration space is
maintained in a reference counted object.  Once all the references are
released, the Configuration Provider will attempt to free the
resources allocated for the object.

If the configuration space was marked for deletion, then the registry
keys associated with the object need to be deleted when the
object is being discarded.  Due to a coding error, the memory
allocated for the object would be freed before the associated registry
keys were deleted.  This could result in a memory access error.

The patch corrects the code in khcint_remove_space() to free the
allocated memory after all the remaining clean-up steps have been
performed.
