To make deallocating partially constructed objects work, the
visit_type_STRUCT() need to succeed without doing anything when passed
a null object.
Commit cdd2b228b9 "qapi: Smooth visitor error checking in generated
code" broke that. To reproduce, run tests/test-qobject-input-visitor
with AddressSanitizer:
==4353==ERROR: LeakSanitizer: detected memory leaks
Direct leak of 16 byte(s) in 1 object(s) allocated from:

SUMMARY: AddressSanitizer: 16 byte(s) leaked in 1 allocation(s).
Test case /visitor/input/fail/struct-in-list feeds a list with a bad
element to the QObject input visitor. Visiting that element duly
fails, and aborts the visit with the list only partially constructed:
the faulty object is null. Cleaning up the partially constructed list
visits that null object, fails, and aborts the visit before the list
node gets freed.
Fix the the generated visit_type_STRUCT() to succeed for null objects.
