Yes, I took this code from some other code I wrote, which uses
__attribute__((cleanup)) for that, and I forgot about it. It also has
some indentation mis-matches..
I found it useful BTW, to move each request to its own block, and then
the variables are just 'cookie' and 'reply' everywhere, and it's easier
to handle.
Anyway, since a couple other places need fixing as well, I'll split it
to a separate patch. Also another trivial change I saw when looking at
this.
