I forgot to mention another reason not to merge this patch. It could
lead to future breakage by making people think it is okay to set the
cld_XXXX items to ERR_PTR at the start of this function. In the
cld_recover case it is last item process but if it wasn't then
config_log_put(), which is called in the error path, does not test
if it is a err ptr and would blow up. I have a patch that fixes
this which I haven't pushed yet. That fix test if cld_XXX is NULL
and returns right away.
