free error when executing ifconfig circularly:
http://git.busybox.net/busybox/commit/?id=a97777889328157bb7d06ec618bad16712a9c345.

Thanks to Chen Gang for reporting and analyzing this bug.

+Subject: [PATCH] ifconfig: fix double free fatal error in INET_sprint
+
+Derived from:
+http://git.busybox.net/busybox/commit/?id=a97777889328157bb7d06ec618bad16712a9c345.
+
+While INET_sprint or INET6_sprint is called circularly by keeping
+ifconfiging, sap->sa_family would be cleaned by other parallel processes
+such as dhclient sometimes, and then there would be a double free error
+like the following:
+
+  *** glibc detected *** ifconfig: double free or corruption (fasttop): 0x000a6008 ***
+  ======= Backtrace: =========
+  /lib/libc.so.6(+0x6bc84)[0x40133c84]
+  /lib/libc.so.6(cfree+0x94)[0x40138684]

+  000a3000-000a4000 rw-p 00093000 1f:05 444328     /bin/busybox
+
+This patch moved free() two lines down to address this problem.
