Hello,
while trying to find out memory leak using talloc_set_name() (which
turned out not be a good idea at all) I got segfault from
ldb_search_default_callback() caused by dereferencing NULL pointer (res).
I understand that returned value of talloc_get_type() is not checked for
NULL often and now I'm also aware of problems connected to using
talloc_set_name(). However, in my opinion segfault should not happen in
any case.
Thank you for taking the time to consider attached patch.
