Please ordre local variables from longest to shortest line (AKA reverse
christmas tree layout).
Please audit your entire submission for this problem.

Please remove all casts from void pointers, they are completely unecessary.
Since nla_data() returns "(void *)", this applies here.
Please audit your entire submission for this problem.

Best not to free an object while you still hold a mutex inside of it.
Also taking the mutex makes no sense at all, this object has no global
visibility, therefore no other thread of control can operate upon it.
