Move the reset of the data structure member ā€œnā€ to a null pointer
into an if branch so that this assignment will be performed only after
a key parsing failure.

This change only reduces a single assignment on a key parsing failure, 
however it breaks the original "free a pointer, and set it to NULL".
I prefer the original style.

Lei, what's your opinion?
