Description Allison Karlitskaya (desrt) 2013-11-29 14:00:53 UTC 
This has always been invalid.  It used to be a memory leak, but since bug 661576, it's a hard assert.
Comment 1 Dan Winship 2013-11-30 20:38:26 UTC 
(Changing title since nm-device is not actually one of the types that does this)

Also, we only do this in cases that are already invalid for returning NULL.
Comment 2 Thomas Haller 2016-08-29 17:43:47 UTC 
I don't think we do this anymore.

Please reopen if you can find a place in code where this is done wrongly.
