From: Li Zhijian <lizhij...@fujitsu.com> This leak was detected by the valgrind.
The crs_range_merge() function unconditionally allocated a GPtrArray 'even when range->len was zero, causing an early return without freeing the allocated array. This resulted in a memory leak when an empty range was processed. Instead of moving the allocation after the check (as previously attempted), use g_autoptr for automatic cleanup. This ensures the array is freed even on early returns, and also removes the need for the explicit free at the end of the function.
