Function return operations should be performed after resource release.

Always freeing the events is wrong.  That path is only for errors.

That would show up if this had been tested.

All error paths go to the Release events process, while under normal
circumstances, go directly to the out process.

Sorry, the wrong patch was sent. The correct patch should be v2 as follows.
