+Subject: [PATCH] normal/completion: Fix leaking of memory when processing a
+ completion
+
+It is possible for the code to reach the end of the function without
+freeing the memory allocated to argv and argc still to be 0.
+
+We should always call grub_free(argv). The grub_free() will handle
+a NULL argument correctly if it reaches that code without the memory
+being allocated.
