* oid_mgt.c is calling islpci_mgt_transaction passing the address
  of a pointer to the management frame. This is not being
  initialized by the caller. The callee only updates this
  pointer when successful. When not, boom.

* Being ultracautious again, not only initialize in the caller,
  also null out the pointer unconditionally in the callee.
