Commit 08016ab82 ("MEDIUM: connection: Add private connections
synchronously in session server list") introduced a build warning about
a potential null dereference which is actually true: in case a reuse
fails an we fail to allocate a new connection, we could crash. The
issue was already present earlier but the compiler couldn't detect
it since it was guarded by an independent condition.
This should be carefully backported to older versions (at least 2.2
and maybe 2.1), the change consists in only adding a test on srv_conn.
The whole sequence of "if" blocks is ugly there and would deserve being
cleaned up so that the !srv_conn condition is matched ASAP and the
assignment is done later. This would remove complicated conditions.
