3.13.11.8 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: David Howells <dhowells at redhat.com>
commit 27419604f51a97d497853f14142c1059d46eb597 upstream.
An edit script should be considered inaccessible by a function once it has
called assoc_array_apply_edit() or assoc_array_cancel_edit().
However, assoc_array_gc() is accessing the edit script just after the
gc_complete: label.
