> on invalid stat type
> 
> From: Colin Ian King <colin.k...@canonical.com>
> 
> Currently if the stat type is invalid then data[i] is being set
> either by dereferencing a null pointer p, or it is reading from
> an incorrect previous location if we had a valid stat type
> previously.  Fix this by skipping over the read of p on an invalid
> stat type.
